Chip designer Nvidia is at the forefront of AI in medtech, partnering with major companies like Medtronic, Johnson & Johnson, GE Healthcare, and Philips. Their collaborations span imaging, robotics, and developer frameworks for healthcare robotics, showcasing the future of AI in medical devices.

Nvidia’s David Niewolny emphasizes the rapid adoption of generative AI in healthcare, with devices incorporating agentic AI to automate workflows and provide contextual support for clinicians. The focus is shifting towards physical AI, particularly in surgical and operational robotics, revolutionizing medical imaging and expanding access to care through autonomous systems.

Partnerships with GE Healthcare are driving the development of autonomous X-ray and ultrasound solutions, utilizing generative AI to provide doctors with comprehensive reports and improve access to care through fully autonomous medical imaging systems. Collaboration with medtech companies is essential in building an ecosystem to accelerate AI and robotics applications in healthcare.

Drawing from the automotive industry, Nvidia aims to create a common platform for medtech companies to leverage AI and robotics, bridging the gap between technology developers and healthcare providers. Agentic AI is revolutionizing clinical documentation, with applications in assisting surgeons and improving patient care through advanced AI technology. Moon Surgical is leveraging Nvidia’s technology to enhance surgical procedures and streamline medical processes. A new robot is simplifying the setup process in hospitals by providing answers to common questions, eliminating the need for a lengthy manual. Despite concerns, the robot is intended to enhance the work of existing team members, not replace them. It aims to improve efficiency and enhance patient care. Surgeons will still be involved, but the robot can automate sub-tasks to make their jobs easier.
