METHODOLOGY AND INFORMATION SOURCES
Data for this study were collected using both primary and secondary data research techniques. A literature search of BCC's extensive library as well as scientific, medical, and business libraries was conducted. On-line databases and government sources were consulted as well. Extensive interviews with industry personnel, scientists, professional and trade organizations, government agency personnel, observers, scientists, and industry professionals were conducted.
Data collected were analyzed by BCC personnel to determine specific findings and forecasts. Once these forecasts were obtained, they were validated with industry experts; consequently, all estimates provided in this report represent a consensus of BCC personnel, industry participants, and industry observers. Since some segments of this report are not routinely measured, BCC derived estimates from a variety of analogous sources. Whenever market estimates are derived, they are fully noted. It should be pointed out that while many factors were considered in constructing different models, the projections are ultimately speculative. As a composite of the opinions and assessments of interviewees, the author, other analysts, and secondary sources, these projections represent something of a consensus. However, all recognize that the relative importance of selected factors could change at any time with new technologies and new products and, thus, change the direction of the market projections. All forecasts use constant 2007 dollars.
