Could breakthroughs in Terahertz Technology bring a new era for the MedTech industry?    From the development of terahertz wave technology to the enhanced capabilities of non-invasive medical imaging, recent advancements in MedTech are set to significantly advance healthcare diagnostics and treatment. This month's breakthroughs in terahertz applications exemplify the progressive spirit of the industry, promising significant improvements in early disease detection and patient-specific therapies. These innovations are not only enhancing patient care but also streamlining operational workflows, showcasing the transformative power of cutting-edge technology in medical fields.    Click the link below to read our latest blog post:    https://lnkd.in/eEkR-fP6    #Kinetica #MedTech #Innovation #Healthcare #TerahertzTechnology   

HI NENC has provided expert guidance on intellectual property, value proposition generation and evidence gathering through our Innovation Pathway to the innovators behind AIATELLA. The medical device uses AI to automate the most time-consuming and complex parts of the analysis of a cardiovascular scan, which can help doctors better allocate their time and cut the ever-growing backlog of patients waiting for this type of scan. Aiatella has the potential to save lives and improve patient outcomes for those at risk of CVD, by increasing the early detection of the condition before it becomes life-threatening.

Looking forward to DeviceTalks Boston Wed/Thu this week, should be a great conference. Hit me up if you're attending, would love to connect. There are many interesting themes throughout the program, but some highlights: 1) Surgical Robotics has to be #1 -- some huge players will be speaking about their products, including Intuitive (perhaps you've heard news of the D5 recently?), Medtronic, Stryker, CMR Surgical, Distalmotion, Quantum Surgical ... you get the idea. 2) Boston Scientific will be talking about #PFA and the future of ablation tech. Q1 earnings showed a 70% growth in the strategic's electrophysiology business (not bad!) and 18.5% growth in the Watchman (which obviously is also part of the treatment paradigm for #AFib). What's next? 3) Super-duper pumped for the Dassault Systèmes panel with Steve Levine, Afrah Shafquat, and Ellen Roche and more discussing #insilico methods and In Silico Clinical Trials. I'm a believer that these tools are the biggest opportunity we have in life science to supercharge development, so I can't wait to hear what they discuss. 4) Nina Goodheart will be discussing how Medtronic is working to bring #structuralheart interventions to underserved communities, including women and ethnic minorities. Who wants to bet there is a discussion of the SMART trial results made public earlier this month at the American College of Cardiology annual meeting? That trial was targeted to addressing #TAVR use in smaller annuli, most directly applicable to women. 5) Two panels on sensors / connected implants, including one with Canary Medical Inc.'s Bill Hunter -- should be great to hear where they see smart implant's going. In my opinion #medtech is leaving tremendous opportunity untapped if we don't do more to integrate sensor data into our understanding of disease. Obvious hurdles to implementation (inertia being the primary one, imho), but why are we not giving clinicians and patients as much information as we can? So yeah, should be a great show! Thanks, as always, to the DeviceTalks gurus Tom Salemi, Chris Newmarker, and Kayleen Brown (and more, no doubt) for putting together a great agenda. See you there!

What would you do if you began losing your eye sight? Today, there is no cure for most inherited retinal diseases (IRD), and those suffering from IRD are left with limited options to manage their condition. However, this is beginning to change, thanks to the efforts of Ash Attia and his team at Bionic Vision Technologies. They’re developing the BVT Bionic Eye System — the world’s first suprachoroidal visual implant to restore functional vision to those suffering from inherited retinal diseases. Some of the technologies presented by innovators at LSI events seem like they're straight out of a science fiction novel. Bionic Vision Technologies is one of the companies that makes me feel that way, and it’s so exciting to see this technology used to restore people’s vision. What other Medtech and Healthtech innovators are turning yesterday’s science fiction into today’s reality?

Smart implants are state-of-the-art technology, such as defibrillators, pacemakers and cochlea implants that can help to manage patient health from inside the body. Within the next 10 years, these implants will be part of a closed loop system for many other conditions including, easing sleep apnea, helping patients suffering from incontinence and chronic pain conditions to restore quality of life. This new wave of smart implant therapy will be enabled by emerging technologies in sensing, optics and photonics, ultra-low power Bluetooth, micro-fabrication, bio-engineering, and artificial intelligence. Clinical insights will be generated across large cohorts of patients, enabling a new paradigm of managing and treating the most challenging diseases.
