Pheochromocytoma is an efficient catecholamine-secreting tumor of the adrenal gland medulla. Catecholamines include norepinephrine, epinephrine, and their derivatives. Symptoms of pheochromocytoma include flank skin, elevated heart rate, elevated blood pressure, anxiety, sweating, headache, and weight loss. Within normal limits, norepinephrine and epinephrine hormones are responsible for regulating the blood pressure and heart rate. Excess production of catecholamine due to pheochromocytoma is a reason for high blood pressure with life-threatening and potentially serious difficulties such as stroke and heart attack. Pheochromocytoma occurs most frequently in adults aged between 30 and 60 years. Pheochromocytomas are not life-threatening mostly, but have 10% chances of being cancerous. High blood pressure is the most significant symptom; however, excessive sweating, light-headedness, a fast and pounding pulse when standing, severe headache, rapid breathing, and other symptoms may also occur.

Lymphoma is a kind of blood cancer which occurs when B or T lymphocytes and leukocytes grow abnormally. In addition, it also occurs if these cells survive longer than their normal life cycle. Lymphoma generally occurs in lymph nodes, bone marrow, spleen, blood and other organs which form a part of the lymphatic system. Lymphoma is of two types namely hodgkin and non-hodgkin. Hodgkin lymphoma develops in the lymph nodes of the lymphatic system. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is the most common type of lymphoma and develops in related tissues of the lymphatic system and lymph nodes. The common symptoms of lymphoma are swelling of lymph nodes, fever, weight loss, night sweets, anorexia, itching, dyspnoea and fatigue. The common tests applied for the diagnosis of lymphoma are immunophenotyping, FISH (Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization) testing and flow cytometry. Radiation therapy, chemotherapy and monoclonal antibody therapy are performed on the patients suffering from lymphoma. Among all these treatment options, the most common method to treat lymphoma is chemotherapy.

A latest report published by Transparency Market Research says that the global mobile imaging services market will expand at a CAGR of 3.2% between 2014 and 2020. The report, titled, 'Mobile Imaging Services Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2014 - 2020', says that the market will grow from US$10.7 billion in 2013 to US$13.3 billion by 2020.

Delivery of healthcare services such as diagnosis, consultation, and advice through digital means or via application of digital technology such as software, online, data analytics, etc., is known as digital health. Medical testing which do not require introduction of instruments in the body is noninvasive testing. The main reason to employ noninvasive digital testing is to improve the quality of life using advanced tools and technology. Moreover, these types of testing provides healthcare providers an easy access to patients.

Cold centrifuge is a laboratory equipment used to separate particles from a solution on the basis of size, shape, density, viscosity of the medium, and rotor speed. Cold centrifuges are characterized by the rotational speed, presence/absence of vacuum volume of sample, and capacity of centrifugation tubes. Cold centrifuge protects biological samples from degradation due to heat generated by the action of spinning. Cold centrifuge is available with different temperatures, ranging from 4oC to - 40oC. It has many biological applications such as separation of cells and cellular granules from solution, separation of blood components, and microfiltration of small aqueous samples. Different types of cold centrifuges are available based on their application, usage of sample, rotational speed, volume of sample, and size and configuration. These are widely used in clinical and pathological laboratories, pharmaceutical industry, hospitals, academic medical institutions, and food & beverages industry.

Remote patient monitoring systems refer to a technology that enable monitoring of patients outside the conventional clinic or hospital premises. The main concept behind remote patient monitoring is to avoid the inconvenience caused to critical patients. Advanced remote patient monitoring systems include sophisticated peripherals that facilitate real time audio and video service. This enables face to face interaction between the patients and medicine professionals. These systems are highly useful as it reduces the travel time of patients to clinics and improves the medical consultation. This can reduce mortality rates and enable efficient use of medical resources. The connectivity between the patients and medical professionals is attained using wireless technologies such as wireless local area networks (WLAN) and cellular networks. Advanced remote patient monitoring systems helps in avoiding emergency overcrowding, manage large number of patients and improved maintenance of electronic health records (EHR).
