Non-Invasive Medical Technology

Overview
Non Invasive Medical Technology has made remarkable progress in bringing to market a comprehensive suite of innovative noninvasive tools and solutions that provide medical specialists with real-time situational awareness and critical lifesaving intelligence. These cutting edge, innovative technological products hold potential to materially change the universal standard of medical care.

Understanding Non-invasive Medical Procedures

A noninvasive procedure is a conservative diagnostic or therapeutic approach, which does not require incision into the body or the removal of tissue. These non-surgical procedures are used to diagnose, measure, monitor or treat problems such as diseases or injuries that don’t require surgery. They are generally not highly invasive and don’t involve cutting. Non-surgical procedures are carried out by a health professional such as a physician, general practitioner (GP), diagnostician or nurse.

Advantage of Non Invasive Procedures

Minimally invasive or non invasive procedures reduces the length of hospital stays, lowers costs, lowers pain, and reduces blood loss. Other minimally invasive techniques minimize radiation exposure, tissue damage, and drug side effects. Noninvasive procedures are essential alternative to invasive surgery.

In Cosmetic Surgery, minimally invasive newer technologies, such as a laser, IPL and Radio-frequency are used to perform procedures that once required extensive surgery and recovery time.

Different types of Non-surgical Medical Procedures

Non-surgical procedures can be grouped into five broad classes:

  1. physical examination (propaedeutic procedures)
  2. tests, x-rays and scans (diagnostic procedures)
  3. treatments to repair the effects of injury, disease or malfunctions, including medicines, physical and radiation therapies (therapeutic procedures)
  4. allied health treatments to improve, maintain or restore a person’s physical function (rehabilitative procedures)
  5. cosmetic procedures to improve a person’s physical appearance for aesthetic reasons.
