Increasingly, the world of medicine is taking the “minimalist“ route, developing technologies designed to sharply reduce patient discomfort and trauma in applications ranging from diagnostics to surgery.

This “mini” revolution in medical embraces innovative tests that identify diseases faster, reducing anxiety in patients and accelerating treatment. It also includes design of more compact, even microscopic-size instruments and procedures for surgery, which speeds recovery times for patients.
