Insilicomed's initial target is cardiovascular device design because of the expertise of its founders in the analysis of heart disease and the very credible successes to date of its technology as a tool in the development of cardiovascular devices and therapies. Large and small medical technology companies have already benefited.

Insilicomed can provide engineering support services for medical device design, development and testing. For example, device-tissue interactions are typically complex and require accurate models of both the device and the tissue, in addition to the interactions of the two. Such modeling analyses are the specialty of Insilicomed.

The cardiovascular modeling specialists and engineering support staff at Insilicomed can perform mechanical analyses on a wide variety of devices and tissues and their interactions. Mechanical loads on implanted devices and their effects on the surrounding tissue depend critically on the accuracy of the model parameters. Modeling these interactions with realistic input parameters and appropriate computational methods is the benefit of using Insilicomed's services. Predictive analyses for cardiovascular-device systems can be performed, including fatigue and failure analysis, stress and strain estimates in tissues and devices, tissue reactions to implanted devices and organ function.
