In almost all parts of the world, women live longer than men. The exact cause behind the differential between male and female life expectancy is uncertain, but it appears to be partly explained by biological advantages and partly by environmental and behavioral factors. However, as women outlive men, they are more prone to suffering from ill healt...

Advanced visualization and robotic tools during the pre-operative and intraoperative phases of a procedure allow surgeons to identify and localize targets so that they can navigate and perform complex surgeries with precision, minimizing invasiveness, improving recovery times, and lowering the risk of post-procedure complications. This Frost & ...

Bionic devices are mechatronic or electronic platforms that can perform the physical and biological functions of body parts or organs that are lost or damaged because of chronic conditions or accidents. Patients that suffer complete vision loss because of retinal diseases; upper and lower limb amputations caused by accidents or chronic diseases; an...

Orthopedic implants replace or strengthen a damaged, painful, or deformed bone, cartilage, or joint and restore mobility and flexibility in patients with bone conditions. The demand for orthopedic implants is growing with the increasing number of orthopedic surgeries being performed every year. This is mainly due to the prevalence of musculoskeleta...

Emerging endoscopy technologies leverage advanced surgical visualization and instrumentation techniques during the pre-operative and intraoperative phases of surgical procedures. The use of these techniques helps surgeons to clearly visualize, accurately identify, and localize anomalies, and subsequently navigate and perform complex surgeries with ...

The study is a comprehensive analysis of the key forces shaping the global medtech industry in 2018 and the resultant themes that would govern the market dynamics in 2019 and beyond. The key medtech industry challenges of lack of innovation in conventional segments, increasing focus on efficiencies, changing device ecosystem to digital enablers, em...

Smart implants are medical devices that incorporate sensors, electronics, and wireless communication technologies to provide unprecedented diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities. In this report, Frost & Sullivan analyzes smart implants with monitoring capabilities that can track different implant types and provide patient health data to clinicia...

The value-based care (VBC) model aims to offer better outcomes and care quality to patients cost-effectively. Multiple stakeholders, including payers, healthcare providers, and medical technology (medtech) players, can share the revenue risk and incentive for providing better value. The United States is a pioneer in VBC adoption, followed by countr...

Computed tomography (CT) is a sophisticated imaging technology that combines X-ray measurements obtained from multiple angles and processes them using computer algorithms to generate cross-sectional images or tomograms. The tomograms are further reconstructed into a 3D representation of organs or tissues, allowing precise visualization of the inter...
