This article traces the Pennes bioheat equation from its 1948 origins to modern multiscale approaches, explaining how engineers select the right level of modelling complexity across device categories.
-
Most medical devices were designed for clinical settings, not the patients and caregivers who increasingly rely on them at home. Here's what good home-use device design actually requires.
-
Ariana and Mark walk through what separates a clinical prototype from a proof-of-concept build, what determines how much testing and documentation you actually need, and where the regulatory line between significant risk and non-significant risk falls.
