Susceptometer helps in the detection of the pathogens during the outbreaks, subsequently, gives a faster response. Foodborne diseases are very common. Fast detection of the pathogens causing foodborne diseases is crucial. The Susceptometer designed for measuring fields from paramagnetic materials in the body, such as hepatic iron stores in the liver A Susceptometer measures the rotations of the magnetic micro discs in a suspension through easy optical interrogation. The Susceptometer includes microfabricated magnetic rotational forces of the magnetic micro discs. The motion of the disc is affected by the local physical properties of the fluid and by probable presence of biological entities that adhere to the micro discs. When bacteria adheres to the disc, the rotation slows down, thus increasing the phase shift. This change in the rotational dynamics of the micro discs affecting the way light passes through the suspension, aids in the detection of the targeted pathogens and substances.  The magnetic discs are customized to target precise pathogens or substances, which when bind to the micro discs, affect the rotation of the magnetic micro discs of the Susceptometer, enabling identification. The main application of Susceptometer is to detect and identify harmful pathogens. Advantages of Susceptometer are that it yields faster results thus decreasing the degree of the pathogen outbreak. Susceptometer demonstrates simple functioning and a low-cost system.

Phacoemulsification is a modern procedure of cataract surgery (technique of cataract extraction) in which the focal point is divided by ultrasonic vibrations and all the while inundated and suctioned. This method as a rule creates more quick twisted recuperating and early adjustment of refractive blunder with less astigmatism, because of the little entry point. Phacoemulsification systems give a stage to perform cataract surgery. For a phacoemulsification system, a standout amongst the most critical elements will be the suction/vacuum part. Pumping frameworks are typically peristaltic or venturi (suctioning). Some phaco and vitrectomy frameworks have devoted chips to quantify in-line vacuum pressure. New phacoemulsification systems are now coming up with exceptional versatility. Irrigation, aspiration and ultrasound, all these three segments constitute the focal point of all phaco systems. Advanced systems include features like Remote control for responsiveness and productivity for each situation, simplified graphical UI (user interface), wireless remote control, and streamlined incorporation with similarity crosswise over most economically accessible cautery cords. Hardware manufacturers have countered to these with incredible advancements, conveying phaco innovation to the refined levels that we discover it in today. Phacoemulsification systems market is quickly gaining popularity and is probably going to be a generally utilized strategy for cataract surgery in many parts of the world sooner rather than later.

Obesity is a medical condition which occurs due to excessive fat accumulation leading to adverse effect on health. Few of the prime reason for obesity are excessive food intake, less physical exercise and genetic susceptibility. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to 25-30 kg/m² is known as overweight, and BMI greater than or equal to 30 kg/m² is considered as obesity. According to the WHO, globally, around 1.8 billion adults are overweight, and around 600 million of them were obese in 2014. In addition, around 40 million children below the age of five years were overweight. Bariatric surgery is one of the best treatment option for obesity and overweight.

Sarcoma are the type of cancer that develops from tissues such as nerves, muscles, fats, blood vessels and deep skin tissues. It occurs in the blood vessels, muscles, and tissues that protects, supports and surround the organs.

Cervical screening is the process of recognizing and expelling abnormal tissue or cells in the cervix before precancerous cervical lesions or cervical malignancy develops. However, both precancerous lesions and early cervical cancers can be dealt with efficiently. Human papillomavirus is the most common viral infection of the reproductive tract and can cause cervical cancer. According to WHO Cervical cancer is the fourth most frequent cancer in women with an estimated 530,000 new cases in 2012 representing 7.9% of all female cancers. Cervical cancer screening is an essential part of a woman's routine health care which aims at secondary prevention of cervical cancer. There are two types of tests for Cervical Cancer Screening- Cytology-based Screening (Pap test or Pap smear) and HPV Testing. Pap smear looks for Precancer, abnormal cells on the cervix that may develop into cancer if left untreated along with noncancerous conditions, such as infection and inflammation. HPV test looks for human papillomavirus in cervical cells. However, HPV DNA testing and Visual Inspection are some other screening methods that can be used in low-resource areas in the developing countries. Routine cervical screening helps to diagnose cervical cancer on time i.e. reduced the mortality rate from cervical cancer. Pap test is recommended for all women between the age of 21 to 65 years old in every three years, and women between 30-65 age recommended to have both Pap and HPV test. This segment dominated the Cervical Cancer Screening market in revenue terms, and the trend is projected to continue throughout the forecast period.
