Medical Device & Diagnostics

Innovation in the medical device and diagnostics space contributes to improved health outcomes for patients. Intellectual property strategy is a foundational component of that innovation. MBHB partners with medical device and diagnostics companies to help them build, manage and defend global patent portfolios in line with their business objectives.

Leadership

IP strategy from R&D and beyond

Our attorneys are technical experts in the medical device and diagnostics field. Many have advanced degrees in chemistry, biology, mechanical and electrical engineering, and computer science. As a result, they not only quickly grasp all aspects of clients’ innovations but are also able to delve into the details of research, development and design alongside clients. We spend time in the field observing real-life use of their innovations. We then use this knowledge to help them carve out unique IP niches and avoid competitors’ IP. 

Comprehensive IP support across applications

We offer medical device and diagnostic clients comprehensive support across all aspects of IP, including transactional due diligence, patent landscape and market clearance evaluations, patent prosecution and IP portfolio development, licensing and non-disclosure agreement development, copyright and trademark services, trade secret counseling, third-party patent evaluations, IP audits, and IP litigation.  

Our experience spans a wide mix of medical device and diagnostics innovations, including: 

  • Medical procedures 
  • Surgical instruments 
  • Planning of procedures 
  • Single-use equipment 
  • Technology for evaluating outcomes 
  • Implants and surgical tools 

IP strategies aligned with business objectives

Medical device and diagnostics companies partner with us to maximize both the value and commercial relevance of their IP portfolios. We work with emerging companies, venture capital groups, individual inventors, medical device incubators, universities, and multinational corporations, providing IP guidance in all stages of development. IP rights are a crucial enabler of commercial success. We maintain a consistent focus on our clients’ business goals as we support their IP strategies.
