Medical technology start-ups face mounting pressure to navigate complex regulatory frameworks whilst maintaining innovation momentum, according to a newly published white paper from TÜV SÜD. The document, released today, provides structured guidance for young companies seeking to avoid common compliance pitfalls that can delay market entry by months.
Researchers in Japan have developed a breakthrough non-invasive closed-loop spinal stimulation system that enables individuals with paraplegia to regain control of leg stepping movements. The hand-controlled magnetic stimulation technique bypasses spinal cord lesions and strengthens preserved neural circuits, offering a surgical-free alternative for gait rehabilitation after spinal cord injury.
Researchers at the University of Macau and University of Hong Kong have developed an innovative multichamber capsule robot that selectively samples bodily fluids and delivers targeted medications via magnetic field control. This breakthrough addresses fundamental limitations in current capsule endoscopy by enabling integrated diagnosis and treatment through single oral administration.
A wireless subretinal photovoltaic implant paired with augmented-reality glasses has enabled patients with complete central vision loss from geographic atrophy to read letters, numbers and words, according to results from a European clinical trial published in The New England Journal of Medicine on 20 October 2025.
Caltech researchers have successfully implemented their innovative iCares smart bandage system in human patients with chronic wounds, demonstrating real-time biomarker detection capabilities that could transform wound care management.
A groundbreaking wearable system that assists blind and partially sighted people to navigate their environment effectively has been developed by researchers in China. The system integrates artificial intelligence algorithms with innovative hardware including artificial skin sensors to provide real-time navigation assistance. Testing with visually impaired participants demonstrated significant improvements in obstacle avoidance and task completion […]
Philips has announced that its Radiology Operations Command Center Console has received EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) certification for remote scanning capability, enabling expert radiologists to remotely control scans and assist technologists in real-time across multiple locations in Europe.
