Figure 2 Technological innovation and future advances in these three specialties. Infographic summarizing recent innovations in arthroscopy (robotic integration, enhanced visualization, computer vision, and three-dimensional (3D) arthroscopic systems), sports medicine (wearable technology, telehealth, outcome tracking, and biomechanical analysis), and regenerative orthopedics (gene therapy, tissue engineering, three-dimensional bioprinting, and exosome therapy). Each specialty is represented with distinct color coding and icons to highlight the emerging tools shaping future clinical practice.
