How can a medical device corporation successfully accomplish and balance both of the following critical business objectives:
1. Reduce Time to Market
2. Increase Product Reliability
While staying within cost targets and meeting regulatory requirements?

MSC.Software is helping medical device manufacturers adopt virtual test and simulation methods successfully within their engineering process. Until now, companies have had to use point analysis tools which never fully provided the level of sophistication or integration needed to study the range of complexities associated with the design of medical applications.

Through MSC SimEnterprise solutions, medical companies now have access to a suite of integrated engineering productivity solutions and techniques for managing the entire simulation process while establishing best practices and standards for virtual testing across the enterprise.

Value to Medical Device Product Development
MSC SimEnterprise is an enterprise business strategy and suite of solutions that help medical device companies address the five key success factors. SimEnterprise solutions allow companies to complete more virtual testing throughout the design process, capture and reuse the experts' best practices and methods, and control the resulting simulation data, processes, methods and knowledge across engineering teams.

The suite of SimEnterprise solutions which improve medical product testing include:

MD (Multidiscipline) Solver Solutions
MSC SimXpert
MSC SimManager
MSC SimDesigner

	Safety and Innovation in Biomedical Device Design: The Increasing Role of Simulation The orbital atherectomy device we're developing consists of a helically wound, three-wire driveshaft, an eccentric cutting head, and a safety tip.	BIOSimulations Inc.

	Simulation-Driven Research Provides Hope of Walking to Paralysis Victims A research project at JPL is using Adams models of the human body to study the way the brain transmits signals to lower limbs for walking, running, and other locomotion.	NASA/Jet Propulsion Lab

	Virtual Product Development Helps Prove Innovative Intraocular Lens Design With the use of Patran and MSC Nastran, the principle behind the Sarfarazi EAIOL concept was proven before prototypes were made and simulation enabled optimisation of the concept, providing a 50% reduction in time-to-market and a 50% reduction in manufacturing costs.	Sarfarazi Innovative Elliptical Accommodative Intraocular Lens

	Better Bloodflow with Low-Stress Stent Researchers used Patran and Marc to study the interaction between the stent and blood vessel and to get results quickly in a variety of areas where physical testing is not practical.	Wake Forest University School of Medicine
