Abstract

I have been working with a research center focused on developing medical instruments as well as medical engineering faculties for a decade. I would like to share my experience and hear words of others. There are innumerable growing fields where industry and physicians can collaborate. Surgeons in different specialties and other interventionist physicians are the main consumers of medical technology developed by industry. There should be a systematic and strong connection between these two arms so as to witness more efficient products with greater applications. Connections of this type are paid attention increasingly by industry. However there are still suboptimal designs where basic requirements of the physician and beneficiary, patient, are not taken into consideration as expected.
