Scientists from the University of Maryland School of Medicine and colleagues create the first-ever immune-capable “Cervix-on-a-chip” to study sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
Researchers are developing a portable AI-powered scanning slit-light device, designed to make ophthalmic care more accessible, so patients can be assessed any place, and any time.
Working with “digital twins” of patients’ hearts, doctors improved cardiac ablation outcomes for patients with life-threatening arrythmias.
Using novel implantable neurotechnology and AI, researchers found a new way to make future leg prostheses feel and act more like a natural part of the body.
Diagnostic imaging without actual images, but with sleek and shiny scanners; no more radiology and pathology departments, but virtual patient models and AI-enhanced surgical precision: At this year's European Congress of Radiology (ECR) in Vienna, two leading experts envisioned 2050 as a radically different future of medicine – less Grey's Anatomy, more Star Trek. They made it clear…
On March 18–19, 2026, Poznań will host the fourth edition of the Laboratory Equipment and Technology Trade Fair, Labs Expo – an event combining presentations of modern technological solutions with an intensive, content-rich conference program. This year’s agenda has been designed for practitioners, including laboratory managers, QC and R&D specialists, metrologists, auditors,…
As healthcare systems worldwide accelerate digital transformation, international buyers and healthcare providers are increasingly seeking reliable partners capable of delivering innovative medical technologies, integrated digital solutions, and resilient supply chains. In recent years, Taiwan has emerged as a key hub for medical technology development and manufacturing in Asia.
Researchers have created a ‘cyborg’ pancreas device - an ultrathin mesh of conductive wires within growing pancreatic tissue - that could open up new ways for treating diabetes.
A breakthrough in cardiac electrophysiology: the first system capable of simultaneously mapping all 4 chambers of the heart, providing physicians with a comprehensive, real-time view of arrhythmias.
A new kind of intraoperative MRI (iMRI) can perform functional MRI scans in real time during brain surgery — helping surgeons detect potential complications in as little as seven seconds.
A new European study suggests that PFA may offer hospitals a way to treat atrial fibrillation more efficiently – with shorter procedures and lower costs than established methods.
MIT researchers have developed a miniaturized ultrasound system that could make it easier for breast ultrasounds to be performed more often, either at home or at a doctor’s office.
Fujifilm Healthcare Europe has announced a new upgrade for its EN-840T therapeutic double balloon enteroscope, which enables single-switch control of the PB-30 balloon control unit directly from the endoscope during double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) procedures.
Northwestern University researchers have developed the first device that can continuously track a fetus’s vital signs while still in the uterus — a feat that previously has not been possible.
The Kraft Center for Community Health has launched a new prize to recognise organisations using technology to transform healthcare access for underserved populations. At the 2025 World Medical Innovation Forum in Boston, ThriveLink – an AI-powered telephonic enrolment platform – was announced as the inaugural winner, receiving US $100,000 to further its mission of connecting families to vital…
Can a full MRI scanner be shrunk to fit through a hospital door, moved by hand, and still produce diagnostic images – including 3D and DWI sequences? At the ESMRMB 2025 Congress in Marseille, Zhiyong Zhang, researcher at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, offered a detailed demonstration that the answer is yes – if you re-engineer every layer of the machine, from magnets to mobility.
A wearable, comfortable and washable device could help people regain the ability to communicate naturally and fluently following a stroke, without the need for invasive brain implants.
While digital health remains fragmented across much of Europe, one EU member state has already connected its system end to end – and continues to push the boundaries.
