PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., May 4 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- ECRI Institute (www.ecri.org), an independent nonprofit that researches the best approaches to improving patient care, reveals its top 10 list of health technologies that hospital c-suite executives should have on their radar now. The just-released list takes into account the convergence of critical patient safety, economic, and regulatory pressures facing healthcare executives today.

The final 10 list includes today's hottest technologies and technology-related issues across a variety of clinical and operational areas, such as health IT, cardiovascular surgery, oncologic radiation, procurement, infection control, and imaging and radiology services.
