Addressing the Challenges in Medical Device Development

Today’s medical devices are very sophisticated, with more providers serving applications in software as well as hardware. These devices are becoming more intelligent and can be tailored to be patient-specific. As a result, such medical devices not only provide for the whole population, but they can also really target the patient cohort or the target group of the disease or condition that must be treated or diagnosed.

Advanced software applications and more intelligent medical devices continue to improve in their ability to treat and monitor conditions. Many recent breakthroughs have enabled medical advice development, from the sensors to the software. In this podcast, we talk with Dr. Visa Suomi from MathWorks about the complexity and inter-functionality of advanced medical devices.
