Hmm, it sounds like there are a few domains you need to learn some specific things about first.
1) What is the state of medical technology in this field? You can try to find people working in the field, either researchers or businesspeople who are probably clued into the state-of-the-art. This will help you avoid reinventing the wheel, or on the other hand, settintg a goal that’s far too ambitious (too many steps away from what’s been done) too soon.
In general, my guess is that everything will be easier if you have a partner already working in the field; lots of things will be totally unknown to you, but obvious to them.
2) What sort of things get what sort of funding? Again you should ask people in the field. There may be more than one way to get funding, I don’t know.
Then, if you still think your original goal is feasible, you need to figure out based on this info, what specific advance in technology you want to pursue, and what kind of team you can put together to sell your idea and possibly start working on it.
You could also think about other ways to contribute to the same end state. Do you really have to personally control the way in which this stuff gets used, the way you would if you founded the company? Or would some other way of furthering basic research in the relevant field also satisfy your goal?
