The article looks at the growth of the business of supplying medicine with electronic aids despite the skepticism of some doctors. It is predicted that medical electronics or biomedical engineering will become a 1-billion U.S. dollar per year industry by 1970 and 1975. Progressive hospitals and clinics across the U.S. are adopting electronic diagnostic and therapeutic apparatus.
