The EEG, a tool used to diagnose seizures, turns 100 next year, and next-gen sensors like portable kits, Bluetooth adhesives, video-synchronized diagnostics, and AI-enabled tools are causing market disruption.
Fremont, CA: In neurotechnology, hardware and software are used to manage ADHD, predict seizures, assess dementia, and treat pain. Neurotechnology advancements have significantly enhanced healthcare by providing precise diagnoses and personalized treatments, allowing clinicians to analyze brain activity and patterns, thereby improving outcomes and quality of life. Funding, regulatory reforms, and media coverage are driving us to better understand and influence brain activity. Here are ten places to start.
Stroke Recovery
The use of neurotechnology for diagnosing and treating strokes is growing, with accurate imaging tools enabling early diagnosis and treatment. Wearable gloves and personalized walking platforms are revolutionizing rehab, allowing people to retrain their neuromuscular functions and improve their upper limb control with FDA-cleared technology.
Cognitive Decline
Many neurotech companies use neurofeedback wearables, biosensors, and digital assessments to analyze multimodal datasets for mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease research.
Multiple Sclerosis
A new generation of neurotech startups uses AI to track brain activity, movement, and cognitive function in multiple sclerosis(MS). They show fine motor control, gait, and speech improvements, similar to stroke rehab.
