AbstractThe commercial world of medical sensors is vibrant and evolving rapidly.
Reports that are only a year or two old are already out-of-date as new
technologies make rapid penetration. The market is vast, so the stakes are
high for those in the business or thinking about entering.
This new study from Kalorama attacks the field from the point of view of
current R&D, technology and innovation, with an eye to potential
markets and emerging technologies.
The market for biosensor systems extends far beyond traditional medical
monitoring and diagnostics, and this new report looks at the entire range of
applications, including remote and military biosensor applications, process
and materials quality control, environmental monitoring, and food and drug
quality control.
