There is increasing interest in the combination,if not
integration of multiple technologies in the delivery of
healthcare. In orthopaedics the emerging trilogy is placing

regulatory hurdles and the long lead times to establish
proof of concept which has various leads time from proof
of concept to clinical proof .
