Understanding Clonality Analysis Clonality refers to the origin of a cell population from a single 'parent' or progenitor cell through asexual reproduction or division. This concept is vital in cancer studies as it helps track the development of tumor cells from a single mutated cell. Clonality analysis is thus essential in understanding the evolution and the spread of cancerous cells in a ...
Introduction Advancements in medical technology have led to innovative solutions for various healthcare challenges. One breakthrough is microneedle patch technology, holding immense promise in revolutionizing drug delivery. These patches consist of micron-sized needles that painlessly penetrate the skin's outermost layer, enabling the controlled release of medications or therapeutic agents. In ...

The diagnosis and treatment of rare diseases have long been a daunting challenge due to their complex and often undefined nature. However, with recent advancements in technology, specifically in the realm of genomics, whole genome sequencing (WGS) has emerged as a powerful tool that has revolutionized the diagnosis and management of rare diseases. This groundbreaking technique offers hope to ...
There are a ton of practical uses for computer vision at present times. One industry where this technology is increasingly useful in healthcare. It is impossible to exaggerate the value of computer vision services in the medical field. Its methods continue to be used more widely since they have demonstrated excellent utility in numerous medical contexts, including surgical planning and medical ...
Private hospitals in South East Asia will dramatically expand the capabilities of their healthcare information systems over the next five years to support transformational changes such as value-based care initiatives and better care coordination, according to a survey by InterSystems, a global leader in information technology platforms for health, business and government. “Private ...
Health care facilities are as varied as the people they serve and the treatments they provide. From hospital emergency rooms, family practices, dental offices, and cosmetic surgery suites to assisted living complexes. Several common needs shared by health care facilities of all capacities are to enhance the patient experience, improve the ability for staff to provide care, and reduce energy ...
A new state-of-the-art automated manufacturing system is enabling Porvair Sciences to produce ultra-pure porous plastics that are fully compliant with FDA, USP Class VI and European Pharmacopoeia statutory regulations as well as being free from heavy metals. Kevin Doolan, General Manager of Porvair Sciences said, "Over the last 18 months we have invested significantly in specifying, testing and ...
AI is a topic that fuels the passions of healthcare entrepreneurs but is it also a distraction from where the real pain points in healthcare are? A panel discussion on AI at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference wrestled with the issue. Artificial intelligence is the kind of topic that brings out the inner geek in all of us. There is so much excitement about its potential applications and where ...
ABSTRACT Synthetic data are becoming increasingly important mechanisms for sharing data among collaborators and with the public. Multiple methods for the generation of synthetic data have been proposed, but many have short comings with respect to maintaining the statistical properties of the original data. We propose a new method for fully synthetic data generation that leverages linear ...
The principles of lean production originating from the Toyota production system has spread from manufacturing to healthcare. Needless to say, this raises concern whether such principles are actually applicable where the product are humans in need of medical care and what are the consequences for the medical staff. The literature on lean does not suggest that lean should not be applicable in ...
Muskogee Community Hospital (Muskogee, OK) is using germicidal UVC (ultraviolet C) Emitters™ from Steril-Aire as part of an innovative infection control measure. The devices were installed in the air handling units and in custom-designed, ceilingmounted units in the surgical and procedural suites, marking the first time a hospital has used UVC technology in this way. Steril-Aire devices ...

Healthcare Information Systems (IS) non-integrated nature is associated with inefficient data and knowledge exchange and reduction in healthcare care services' quality. Therefore, numerous medical errors occur that impact healthcare services. Healthcare organisations have used Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) to integrate IS. Literature indicates that EAI achieves integration at four ...
Integrative Medicine (IM) incorporates elements of complementary and conventional medicine into diagnosis and treatment of diseases. It focuses on health and healing by supporting the body's innate healing abilities. The complementary arm of IM can resort to specific therapeutic techniques like acupuncture, or broadly adopt particular medical paradigms such as Homeopathy or Tibb. IM has a role to ...
