History of medical technology in the Philippines?

Answer 1

Medical Technologists were first recognized in the Philippines as professionals when its law (Medical Technology Law) was enacted in June 21, 1969, a year before the rest of world did the same, signed into law as R.A. 5527 by the late Ferdinand E. Marcos, through the hardships of many PAMET (Philippine Association of Medical Technologists Inc.) officers under the unified banner of Prof. Nardito Moraleta who was then president of the said organization.

History of Medical Technology in the Philippines was researched in full detail by Prof. Nardito Moraleta himself and included in his book called, "Medical Technology Laws and Ethics" which circulated since 1971 and continuously updated up to now in 2011. We strongly suggest buying the book for more detailed information.
