What this shows Heron's Innovation Score is 36.3/100 (top 47% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Where Heron's grants concentrate

Heron Neutron Medical Corp. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 77.8% of grants classified under A61N (ELECTROTHERAPY; MAGNETOTHERAPY; Radiation THERAPY; Ultrasound Therapy). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Heron sits between Hemlock Semiconductor Operations LLC and Hickies, Inc..

Heron's three-year grant acceleration

Heron Neutron Medical Corp. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
