Medical industry

From MRI scanners to X-ray equipment, as well as medical orthopedic implants for knees, hips, or dental prosthetics: the medical industry demands safe, non-toxic metals. While lead was previously often used for such equipment, all toxic elements must now be eliminated from the industry. Additionally, metals for implants must be inert, or biocompatible, to ensure that the implants are not rejected by the body. The medical industry is thus one that is constantly evolving and is subject to many regulations.

Applications in the medical industry

The medical industry is constantly evolving, driven by innovation and stringent safety standards. Equipment such as MRI scanners and X-ray machines require non-toxic, safe metals to avoid health risks. Orthopedic implants like artificial knees, hip prostheses, and dental implants also demand biocompatible, body-friendly materials like titanium alloys, ensuring optimal acceptance by the body. Tungsten alloys are now fully replacing lead, as they are safer and less harmful, without compromising on performance or reliability.
