Four ASX shares that are not letting that hold them back are listed below. Here's why they are rising:

Pro Medicus Limited (ASX: PME)

The Pro Medicus share price is up 4% to $109.31. This follows the announcement of a new product launch. The health imaging company has launched the groundbreaking Visage Ease VP for Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) Vision Pro. It supports immersive, spatial experiences for diagnostic imaging and multimedia.
