Molecular Imaging Insight - June 2008 - (Page 3) BY J O N AT H A N B AT C H E L O R Evidence-based medicine, the practice of healthcare interventions guided by or based on supporting scientific evidence, is a topic of great interest among payors and clinicians. The combined pressures of rising medical costs, longer life expectancy, and a demographic spike in patients 50 years and older has led to the charge that healthcare policy planners have embraced its practice as method to rein in increased expenditures. Public health officials’ counter that evidence-based medicine ensures that patients receive the best resources for their care, without unnecessary and wasteful procedures.
