Bourne Research Dispels Myths and Outlines Benefits of BioMEMS and Nanomedicine
The use of MEMS and Nanotechnology in medicine is more than just the stuff of science fiction. These technologies are having a profound, and in some cases, revolutionary impact on healthcare, resulting in products that are improving diagnosis, treatment and patient outcomes; all of which is ultimately reducing medical costs.
Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) October 3, 2006 -- Nearly every medical field has already been touched commercially by either MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) or Nanotechnology-based products, reports Bourne Research. While myths persist as to what BioMEMS and Nanomedicine really consists of, the benefits these technologies provide—whether it’s via lab-on-a-chip, sensors, nanomaterials or other unique approaches—are indeed real. And with wireless technology about to further transform healthcare, not to mention that consumers will be interacting directly with more products, it’s become increasingly important to separate fact from fiction about the use and benefits of MEMS and Nanotechnology in medicine, the high-tech market research firm says.
