Beyond the Clinic: A Blueprint For Developing Reliable, Edge AI-Enabled Medical Devices
By Neeta Shenoy - 07 May, 2026 - Comments: 0

In a quiet farmhouse in rural Utah, hundreds of miles from the nearest city, a pregnant mother wakes up and waits for a kick that doesn’t come. In this part of the country—one of the many "medical deserts" where 30% of counties lack a single gynecologist—the nearest hospital is a 500-mile journey. Usually, this moment of silence leads to a desperate phone call to an HMO where a nurse asks... » read more

Med Tech Morphs Into Consumer Wearables
By Liz Allan - 06 Feb, 2025 - Comments: 0

Doctors have been using advanced technology for years, but the growing trend is for consumers to use devices at home and have direct access to their data. Watches and rings that were once primarily used for counting steps or registering sleep patterns can now read blood pressure, heart rate, blood oxygen, body temperature, and other early signs of illness. Meanwhile, various patches are under d... » read more

What IoMT Really Stands For
By Brad Jolly - 27 Jan, 2025 - Comments: 0

The basic goals of engineering include the achievement of a product’s purpose, safety, cost, manufacturability, and supportability, among other things. For internet of things (IoT) applications, much of the essential purpose relates to wireless communications that untether communication from wires and cables. This is especially true of the rapidly growing internet of medical things (IoMT), wh... » read more

Diagnostic Medical Ultrasound Innovation Using UltraFast Algorithms
By Subh Bhattacharya - 05 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Medical ultrasound is the most attractive among all diagnostic imaging systems due to its least-invasive nature and lack of any radiation. As medical ultrasound continues to grow in wider range of applications for its non-invasive nature and for its ability to see soft-tissue images, there is growing demand in supporting advanced imaging techniques in ultrasound beamformers, in multi-dimensiona... » read more
