What this shows Hypermed's Innovation Score is 40.1/100 (top 36% 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.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Hypermed?

Each dot is one of Hypermed’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Hypermed’s own 22.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Hypermed's grants concentrate

Hypermed Imaging, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 69.2% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Hypermed sits between Herrmann Ultraschalltechnik GMBH & Co. KG and Institut National Polytechnique DE Toulouse.

Hypermed's three-year grant acceleration

Hypermed Imaging, Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 13 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.
