Abstract
In the case of the ultrasonoscope, agree with Professor Enthoven's analysis and his conclusTon. The product is not significantly better than others already on the market to offer a competitive advantage worthy of the investment and uncertainties associated with the process of bringing it to market. Clinical benefits such as portability, safety and flexibility are important in their own right, but seem marginal here in competitive product differentiation. And, for a company without an established position in the field, these are not the sort of contributions that make for successful market entry.
