This report presents updated estimates of the medical technology industry’s (MTI) economic contributions from the previous industry analysis, which was released in 2007. The industry encompasses the manufacturing of everyday medical devices, such as contact lenses and thermometers, to high-tech equipment, such as implantable pacemakers, neurostimulators and state-of-the-art imaging systems. Each of the 50 States and the District of Columbia are benefitted by MTI establishments; nearly all have seen this industry grow since the 2007 report.
