✦ Synopsis

They differ only from currently available expensive technologies because they may provide a new treatment where none existed before. This is a report on an area that is in transition, both in terms of the technologies being developed and the methods of analysis that might be applied. While the level of detail on assessment is relatively limited, useful material is presented on various aspects of biotechnology products. This publication would be a useful source document for those seeking information on this rapidly developing area of health care technology.
