Digital innovations such as additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, wearable devices and diagnostics are helping to facilitate new possibilities for diagnosis and treatment, increase process efficiency and reduce costs. Technological advances are also connecting developed and emerging markets – and the participants along the value chain of health care.

Regulations and Compliance
