Abstract

The present paper gives new information about the activity of Pietro Patroni, an early XVIII century optician from Milan, working just after the Spanish domination. By means of research carried out in the City and Church Archives it has been possible to find out the year of his birth, 1676 or 1677, and that of his death, 1744 (September, 1), the name of his wife and brother and the parish church he belonged to. An annotated list of the known microscopes and telescopes gives an impression of his production, partly derivative of Seventeenth century heritage but partly original and innovative. The number of his known signed instruments has been doubled by the discover of one unknown microscope and seven telescopes in private collections and public Museums.

An impact assessment of the European medical device regulations implementation - the current status quo.

BACKGROUND: This research aims to assess the current impact of the medical and in-vitro diagnostic devices regulations (MDR/IVDR) on the device industry in the EU, under the lens of postimplementation and the amending regulation, and in advance of the final transition to the IVDR/MDR in the future. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: A quantitative survey was administered to a diverse cohort of medical device enterprises, ranging from micro to large organizations. RESULTS: The survey indicates that the MDR/IVDR has harmed innovation, leading many manufacturers to seek initial device approval and launch elsewhere before in Europe. There is evidence that some manufacturers have rationalized their existing product portfolios and removed devices from the market as they stated they would in previous industry surveys. The MDR/IVDR has been shown to negatively impact manufacturers, with increased costs related to notified body (NB) fees, maintaining and updating documentation, recertification fees, and hiring additional staff. CONCLUSION: This study provides a current status of the effects of MDR/IVDR on manufacturers and finds that despite amending regulations and other interventions taken by the EU to mitigate regulatory burden, ensure product availability, and address stakeholder concerns, the EU is no longer the market of choice for new products.

Administration of a CT division.

A computed tomography (CT) division can be viewed as a business subsidiary of a larger corporation-the radiology department. While a large amount of radiologic literature has been devoted to specific CT techniques and applications, there has been less of a focus on the operational structure required to achieve quality and efficiency in a CT division. This report includes discussion of the managerial structure, equipment purchases, continuing education, protocols, billing, and quality assurance measures that can be used to administer a CT division.
