Endocrine Technologies

The specialized hardware and software interfacing directly with endocrine organs or functions. Think beyond wearables to closed-loop "artificial pancreas" systems, transcranial magnetic stimulation devices designed to modulate hypothalamic function, or microfluidic chips that culture endocrine tissues for drug testing. These are the precision instruments for interacting with the body's chemical command center.
Example: "The new endocrine technology for astronauts is a wrist-worn sonogenic device. It uses targeted ultrasound pulses to gently stimulate the parathyroid gland, helping maintain calcium balance in zero-G without drugs, literally using sound waves to give a gland polite instructions."
