According to GlobalData\u2019s Technology Foresights, which uses over 155,000 patents to analyze innovation intensity for the medical devices industry, there are 30+ innovation areas that will shape the future of the industry.<\/p>\n

AR-based medical imaging<\/strong> is a key <\/strong>innovation area in virtual and augmented reality<\/strong><\/p>\n

AR-based medical imaging is the use of augmented reality technology to enhance medical imaging and visualization. This approach allows for the display of three-dimensional medical images in real-world environments, allowing medical professionals to visualize and manipulate these images in a more intuitive and interactive way.<\/p>\n

GlobalData\u2019s analysis also uncovers the companies at the forefront of each innovation area and assesses the potential reach and impact of their patenting activity across different applications and geographies. According to GlobalData, there are 240+ companies, spanning technology vendors, established medical devices companies, and up-and-coming start-ups engaged in the development and application of AR-based medical imaging.<\/p>\n
