In an industry as tightly regulated as medicine, it's not surprising that such enormous inaccuracies have not been worked out. No matter what medical professionals might say about wanting to save people's lives, the ubiquitous motivator of economics is a much more powerful incentive. Unfortunately, since the industry is not open to being influenced by the free market, it will be very difficult to break into the industry and jump start that innovation.
It will be very interesting to see if developing countries manage to leapfrog our current system and establish a medical industry that is less dependent on people.
