| Dear All,
Please note that the April issue of the Virtual Medical Worlds Magazine
is now available on-line at http://www.hoise.com/vmw.
In this month's edition we like to draw your attention to a newly issued
publication addressing a whole new market:
"RFID and Emerging Technologies Market Guide to Healthcare"
written by Bradley Sokol of Fast Track Technologies Ltd.
This report is an analytical business tool that describes and analyzes
the impact that the emerging technologies of RFID, wireless and
connectivity will have on the healthcare hospital market. The study
focuses on the U.S. market, while analyzing, at a more general level,
the impact international markets will have.
VMW has been offered the opportunity to have a preview at this extensive
and impressive publication. Here is our review:
"This study points out what exactly are the needs and drivers for health
care providers to turn to RFID and wireless solutions. Brad Sokol's book
is the ideal mental and geographical map/compass for the health care
provider business. This should help RFID and wireless technology vendors
to sail between the very specific demands of quality patient care and
strict cost reduction."
Highly recommended to all VMW readers with a professional interest in
RFID and emerging technologies for the health care business.
For all information, we invite you to carefully read the announcement at
our VMW Web site at http://www.hoise.com/vmw and the press release at
