According to the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, in 2016, 75-85% of people in the U.S. experience some form of back pain in their life.

Medical sensors that measure the physical functions of the body and convert it into an electrical or optical signal. These devices play a major role in the monitoring of chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases to measure the physical function and convert it into the electrical signal. Furthermore, chronically ill patients and geriatric population are the target area for sensor-based devices, for instance as per National Institute of Aging, there are around 617 million people above the age of 65 years in 2016 and it will cross 1.6 billion by 2050.

As the size of the tumor increases, the ability of lungs to provide oxygen to bloodstreams decreases. The lung carcinoma is classified as, non-small cell and small cell lung cancer and originates from the epithelial cells. Lung cancer has the highest mortality rate globally, wherein major reasons behind it are excessive smoking of cigarettes and pipe along with exposure to asbestos.

The cancer of melanocytes— a type of pigment cells – is known as melanoma. A major factor causing this skin cancer is high exposure to ultraviolet rays. There are three types of melanoma that include, cutaneous, mucosal, and ocular. Cutaneous melanoma is the cancer of skin, mucosal melanoma of mucous membrane in the mouth and nasal passage, and ocular melanoma of eye. Early diagnosis and treatment can increase survival rate in melanoma. Melanoma spreads to other body parts as well, thereby increasing the complexity of treatment. Rare genetic conditions such as xeroderma pigmentosum also increase the risk of melanoma. The condition is diagnosed with biopsy of any skin lesion.
