Ketones usually simple are compounds that contain a carbonyl group, and due to exclusion of reactive groups such as –Cl or –OH, ketones are considered simple in nature. Industrial solvent acetone and sugar (ketoses) are some of the commonly used ketones. Various methods are implemented for the production of ketones in academic laboratories on an industrial scale, and are also produced in certain ways by organisms. Ketones are manufactured in industries on a large scale as pharmaceuticals, polymer precursors and solvents. On the basis of their type, ketones are divided into cyclohexane, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and acetone. Ketones are a common term in biochemistry, however, a lesser known term in organic chemistry. MEK is a colorless, flammable, stable liquid with similar odor to acetone. MEK exhibits the ability to be miscible with water and other organic solvents. MEK is a valuable and powerful solvent for many solvents such as resinous materials owing to its exceptional solvency.

Rutile is a mineral mainly used as a source of titanium. Rutile occurs as transparent or opaque crystals and is available in various colors including black, yellow, golden or reddish brown depending on the source. Rutile has tetragonal crystal structure with two four sided prisms. Rutile is commonly found as an inclusion with other minerals such as quartz and is present as needle or parallel fibers in the minerals. Rutile is also found as an inclusion of several gem stones including star sapphire and is responsible for the asterism effect of gem stones.

Vertebral compression fracture (VCF), a spinal disorder is caused due to the compression of vertebrae because of trauma, osteoporosis, primary tumors or infections; resulting in spinal deformity, disability, and acute or chronic pain. Such fractures may be mild or severe in nature and most often occur in the thoracic and lumbar parts of the spinal cord. The non-surgical procedures for treating pain caused in VCF include bed rest, pain medication, back bracing, and physiotherapy. Modern VCF treatment options such as minimally invasive surgical procedures which involve injecting of cementing material in the fractured vertebra provide immediate relief from pain and stability to the patient. Post surgery complications may include failure of the bones to fuse, humpback and compression of spinal cord or nerve root.

Bone morphogenetic proteins are multifunctional growth factors and are expressed during the cartilage repair, early fracture, and limb development. Currently, around 20 different BMPs are identified, where each protein possesses different degrees of tissue stimulating properties. These proteins provide means for quick recovery from fracture, where bone healing or augmentation is required. These proteins have been especially helpful in spinal fusion. BMPs are more likely to be used in patients who have undergone previous surgery or patients who are undergoing complex spinal fusion procedures.

Dental laboratories perform technical procedures related to dental treatment without any direct involvement of the dentists and patients. These laboratories manufacture and customize variety of dental products like dentures, bridges, crowns and others. Dental laboratories comprises of various dental technicians like laboratory technicians, dental technologist, dental ceramics and others. These laboratories have strategic contracts with patients and many pharmaceutical and other industries that purchase their dental materials.

Bio-imaging refers to tools and technologies used to create structural or functional images of living objects or systems. Medical imaging in bio-imaging involves use of techniques and processes to create images of the anatomical areas and tissues of the human body to the molecular level. This helps in diagnosis and examination of disease and also helps to establish database of normal anatomy and physiology for future study. On the other hand, molecular biology in bio-imaging is related to the spatial and temporal arrangement of biological macromolecules. Bio-imaging incorporates radiology which involves various imaging technologies of X-ray radiography, medical ultrasonography or ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, elastography, endoscopy, thermography, tactile imaging, medical photography and nuclear medicine functional imaging techniques such as positron emission tomography. Medical imaging is considered as a set of techniques that produce images of internal structures of the body non-invasively. Bio-imaging aims to improve human health with the use of imaging techniques to advance diagnosis, prevention and treatment of human diseases.

Spinal implants are devices used to treat deformity, provide stability and strengthen the spine.These devices are broadly segmented as fusion and non-fusion spinal devices. Non-fusion spinal surgery is expected to grow during the study period, even though fusion devices account for the largest market share. Non-fusion spinal surgery’s growth is assisted by engineers and medical practitioners collaborativelycreating devices that can be implanted without fusion in human bodywhich helps to retain flexibility and movement of patients post-surgery.Spinal non-fusion devices market can be segmented on the basis of technology such as artificial discs, dynamic stabilization devices, annulus repair, facet arthroplasty and nuclear disc prosthesis.
