A medical image enables doctors to view the current situation of the patient's medical conditions. Medical images are used for the visualization of the organs, body parts and tissues and facilitate physicians to diagnose and treat diseases. Various medical imaging techniques are used to visualize organs and tissues at their cellular level. Major imaging techniques include nuclear imaging, optical imaging and radiology. These imaging technologies are specialized in different therapeutic areas. For instance, the radiological method of image capturing is specialized in anatomical and physiological visualization of the human body. In addition, advancement in medical imaging devices makes image capturing technologies more easy and convenient to image viewers. For instance, optical coherence tomography (OCT) is used in optical imaging techniques which helps in visualization of abnormalities at cellular level.

Surgical haemostatic agents and tissue sealant are used to stop bleeding during the surgery in the areas where cautery is difficult. Synthetic based tissue sealant and protein based tissue sealant are the type of sealants. Synthetic sealant helps in decreasing the risks of diseases and allergic reactions. Synthetic sealant don not contain any human or animal-derived products. Adhesion barrier are used to prevent fibrin formation bridges between the damaged tissues. Some of the types of adhesion barriers are film based, gel based and hydroflotation based adhesion barriers.

Healthcare information technology is growing at a significant rate due to increasing demand for better healthcare facilities and government initiatives in the field. Computer assisted surgical (CAS) systems refer to the healthcare information systems that are based on both information technology and surgical techniques. Use of computer assisted surgical systems brings accuracy in the surgical outcomes. These systems also help by reducing pain, medical costs and recovery period. Computer assisted surgical systems have applications in various fields such as orthopedics, neurology and gynecology. On the basis of types of products, computer assisted surgical systems market can be classified into surgical navigation systems, surgical robots and surgical planners & simulators. Of which surgical robots have the largest and the fastest growing market.

Autoimmune diseases refer to a medical condition in which an overactive immune response is generated by the body, resulting in actions against own cells and body tissues. As compared to men, this disease is more prevalent in women. Autoimmune diseases diagnostics refer to the set of procedure for detecting the type and stage of autoimmune disease. It is done to detect causative agents so that correct treatment could be given to the patient. Autoimmune disease diagnostics market is growing at a significant rate due to increase in the prevalence for autoimmune diseases and growing awareness in the field. On the basis of applications, autoimmune disease diagnostics market can be classified into localized autoimmune disease diagnostic tests and systemic autoimmune disease diagnostic tests.
