Radiology Information System is a software which manages the data for physicians, hospital's radiology department and clinics in an electronic form. Data could be in any form like billing, scheduling and medical imaging. Radiology information system is very useful to track radiology imaging orders and to track reports of patients. Patient's entire radiology history, from admission to discharge could be track. Statistical reports for a patient or for a group of patients can be generated. The radiology information system also allows the staff to make appointments for outpatient and inpatients. Radiology Information system also provides the detailed financial recording, electronic payments and automated claims.

Nuclear Imaging is the branch of medical imaging that uses radioactive material to diagnose the severity of the diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurological disorders and other abnormalities within the body.

The eye is the most amazing and complex structure in the body. The two eyes provide about half the total sensory input from entire body into the brain. Eyes are sensitive to trauma, infection or inflammation that may end up in blindness.

Colloid or a colloidal system is defined as a chemical system composed of finely divided particles dispersed in a continuous medium. Hydrocolloids are those colloidal long chained polymeric systems which are composed of fine particles dispersed in water. Depending on the quantity of the medium namely water, these hydrocolloids exist as gels or as sols. These hydrocolloids find a variety of applications especially in food industry owing to their exceptional ability to modify the rheology of the system to which it is added. Besides, these also find application in pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry. As an ingredient in food and beverages, these may be used as thickening agents, gelling agents, emulsifying agents, stabilizing agents among other applications. Food hydrocolloids may be obtained from natural sources such as plants, animals, microbial sources or may be synthesized artificially. Global Food hydrocolloids market is slated to witness a steady growth during the forecast period.

The evolution of solid waste is a major threat to community and environment and at the same time can be useful as strategic renewable resource. Municipal waste remains a foreseeable by-product of civilization and a main target for advancement in technology. Meanwhile, the waste management market is entering a period of active change as the total volume of waste generated is estimated to grow from 1.5 billion tons in 2014 to 2.3 billion tons by the end of 2025. Smart waste management helps to reduce the overall transport and collection cost of waste management by almost 50%. Smart waste management denotes the management of waste generated from residential buildings, houses, streets, commercial buildings, public places, hospitals and other institutions. Smart waste management uses smart technologies such as a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) disposal tags, vacuum containers, sensor containers, which provide real time fill measurement of solid municipal waste. Smart waste management ultimately reduces fuel and service cost. Proper and efficient management of solid waste through smart waste management can solve many problems related to environmental pollution, climatic changes and public health.

Accurately compacted soil is a key component of virtually every construction and road maintenance project. It provides solid base required to support footing, foundations, slabs and pavements. When the underlying soil is not solid and dense enough, extreme soil settlement can lead to various structural problems such as leakage and cracks leading to foundation erosion. In order to prevent such problems, tamping rammers or rammers prove to be the most effective hand operated or even engine driven machines for compaction of soil, sub base, sand, concrete and asphalt. The rammer is one of those crucial equipment required for highways, urban & rural road development and maintenance and also for general groundwork. The rammer has an additional advantage due to its small and compact size to suit for small jobs and trenches and prove to be the only possible equipment's to find its place for small work. For large road work and development, rammers behave as perfect companions to large compaction machines which can't get into every corner. Rammers can be used for patching roads, installing street furniture, building foundations, hard landscaping or for asphalt and concrete bases. Rammers are usually hand operated vibratory machines that apply compaction forces generated by gasoline or diesel engine that powers a piston with two sets of springs. These machines travel forward with each bounce as guided by the operator and are preferred for narrow excavations up to 24 inches wide or similar to such structures.

Submersible pump is a submerged device which is required to extract water and other fluids from the bored hole or well. Submersible pump is a centrifugal pump which is usually coupled with an electric motor. These pumps remain submerged in water due to which there will not be any pressure trouble. The main reason of using these pumps is to avoid cavitation. Cavitation is a problem related with the high elevation distance between fluid surfaces and pumps. Unlike other pumps, submersible pumps pushes water to the surface instead of sucking of water out of the ground like above ground water pumps. These pumps are used for continuous discharge of water in higher quantity as well as for high heads. The need of water is being increased day to day for various uses. To get water from its resources, submersible pumps are required in most of the fields, and their demand in the market is also rising. These pumps are used to extract fluids and are deployed in various industries such as chemicals, construction, energy & power, oil & gas, construction, wastewater amongst others. The growth of the submersible pump market is in sync with increasing urbanization, industrialization and improvement of irrigational practices in agriculture globally.

Unpaved roads account for more than 40% of the roads globally. These unpaved roads can deteriorate quickly due to traffic, weather changes and bad habit of driving leading to accidents in most of the cases. The need to have paved roads is considered as a priority for growing infrastructure development globally and has driven the demand to produce more asphalt pavers. An asphalt paver is a construction equipment machinery generally used to place asphalt on roads, parking lots, bridges and other such places. It surfaces the asphalt flat and provides minor compaction before it is further compacted by heavy road rollers. It is usually termed as an asphalt paving machine. Some asphalt pavers are dragged by the dump truck laying the asphalt, but most of these are now self-propelled machines. Rising infrastructural and road development initiatives in emerging economies to develop smart cities serves a major driving factor which accelerates the growth of asphalt pavers market globally. Based on projections of demand by infrastructure segment globally, investment in road development and maintenance account to 25% of overall revenue share fuelling the demand for asphalt pavers globally.

Gaskets and seals are those components that are used in order to fill the gaps and spaces in between two or more mating surfaces. The primary function of these gaskets and seals is to ensure a seamless fit in between the two components thus preventing any leakage of fluids – vapours, liquids etc. into or from these mating surfaces. Gaskets and seals are often used in order to maintain the intended level of pressure in the components. Also, these gaskets and seals act as a component which prevents contamination caused by entry of foreign particles and substances into the assembled unit. Moreover, these gaskets, while occupying the space in between the surfaces, fill out the irregularities in the surfaces, which otherwise could result in failure of the assembly. Gaskets are usually made of materials such as metals, paper, elastomers or rubbers, thermoplastic elastomers, fibre based materials and plastics among the others. One of the key factors which influences gasket material selection is the compression load that is likely to be exerted on the gaskets and the load bearing capacity of these gaskets.
