    If there is no regulatory requirement in India to phase out the 2-pulse X-ray technology, the digital flat panel x-ray will not take-off as per forecast.
    The average Indian living in India does consider radiation, as there are other major problems such as poverty and pollution to name a few.
    The healthcare system in India cannot be compared with that of Americas. A better market area has to be identified for this superior GE product.
