The Greatest Medical Devices of All Time, Take Two

In the past couple of years, we have received more than 2000 results in a poll asking readers to help pick the greatest medical devices of all time--with some feeling like additional technologies should have been considered in the roundup. With that feedback in mind, we've launched a new poll dedicated to the question.

After receiving more than 2000 votes from our audience, you would think that it is fairly straightforward which devices deserve to be called the greatest of all time. But some readers have questioned the omission of the suture, while others wondered why birth control devices like the pregnancy test or the condom weren't included in our initial roundup.

Votes are flowing into the poll below. As of January 29, the eyeglasses is still clearly in the lead, but the rest of the lineup so far looks considerably different than our initial roundup.
