Recent Innovations in Footwear and the Role of Smart Footwear in Healthcare-A Survey.

Smart shoes have ushered in a new era of personalised health monitoring and assistive technologies. Smart shoes leverage technologies such as Bluetooth for data collection and wireless transmission, and incorporate features such as GPS tracking, obstacle detection, and fitness tracking. As the 2010s unfolded, the smart shoe landscape diversified and advanced rapidly, driven by sensor technology enhancements and smartphones' ubiquity.

Breast Mass Detection and Classification Using Machine Learning Approaches on Two-Dimensional Mammogram: A Review.

Breast cancer is a leading cause of mortality among women, both in India and globally. The prevalence of breast masses is notably common in women aged 20 to 60. These breast masses are classified, according to the breast imaging-reporting and data systems (BI-RADS) standard, into categories such as fibroadenoma, breast cysts, benign, and malignant masses.

Role of 5G Networks in Healthcare Management System.

The present-day healthcare system operates on a 4G network, where the data rate needed for many IoT devices is impossible. Also, the latency involved in the network does not support the use of many devices in the network. The 5G-based cellular technology promises an effective healthcare management system with high speed and low latency.

Automated Decision Support System for Detection of Leukemia from Peripheral Blood Smear Images.

Peripheral blood smear analysis plays a vital role in diagnosing many diseases including cancer. Leukemia is a type of cancer which begins in bone marrow and results in increased number of white blood cells in peripheral blood. Unusual variations in appearance of white blood cells indicate leukemia.

Image Processing Approach for Detection of Leukocytes in Peripheral Blood Smears.

Peripheral blood smear analysis is a gold-standard method used in laboratories to diagnose many hematological disorders. Leukocyte analysis helps in monitoring and identifying health status of a person. Segmentation is an important step in the process of automation of analysis which would reduce the burden on hematologists and make the process simpler.

Feature extraction using traditional image processing and convolutional neural network methods to classify white blood cells: a study.

White blood cells play a vital role in monitoring health condition of a person. Change in count and/or appearance of these cells indicate hematological disorders. Manual microscopic evaluation of white blood cells is the gold standard method, but the result depends on skill and experience of the hematologist.

Development of a Robust Algorithm for Detection of Nuclei and Classification of White Blood Cells in Peripheral Blood Smear Images.

Peripheral Blood Smear analysis plays a vital role in diagnosis of many diseases such as leukemia, anemia, malaria, lymphoma and infections. Unusual variations in color, shape and size of blood cells indicate abnormal condition. We used a total of 117 images from Leishman stained peripheral blood smears acquired at a magnification of 100X.

Co-Infection: Weil's Syndrome with Hepatitis B Infection- A Diagnostic and Therapeutic Hitch.

Undifferentiated Acute Febrile Illness (AFI) is a common clinical syndrome among patients seeking hospital care. Detection of co-infections at the time of presentation is a diagnostic challenge, especially with limited laboratory support. Even if detected, early treatment and cure of these co-infections can be difficult for the clinicians.

Salmonella Paratyphi B septicemia in a Neonate.

Septicemia is a major cause of death in neonates especially in developing countries. We report a case of septicemia in a neonate due to Salmonella Paratyphi B. The baby responded well to therapy and recovered completely.
