Veterinary telemedicine is a new technology used to ensure that a two-way flow of information is facilitated between field veterinarians and experts, resulting in an enriching experience for the animal husbandry sector. This allows a veterinarian to digitalize radiographic, ultrasound, and microscopic images and send them through fax or the internet to a veterinary specialist for interpretation providing service without leaving their veterinary dispensary or a hospital. The interest in veterinary telemedicine has increased due to the ongoing pandemic.

According to the article published by the Veterinary Medical Association in 2020, the use of veterinary telemedicine has grown to monitor and protect the health of veterinary teams and veterinary patients. Moreover, in March 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that it intends to temporarily not enforce certain requirements to allow veterinarians to better use telemedicine to address animal health needs by providing flexibility that will help veterinarians maintain the health of animals during the pandemic.

Veterinary telemedicine is the act of practicing medicine at a distance. Any time a veterinarian diagnoses a condition, recommends a particular treatment or provides a prescription, without the patient in the hospital for an in-person physical examination. It is the safe, appropriate, and timely assessment and management of the animal patient via electronic consultation with their owners. Some veterinary hospitals offer their own telemedicine services that work within the veterinary hospital or veterinarians contracted from an outside service.

A veterinary telemedicine app gives clinics a competitive edge by maintaining and managing a large client base that provides animal owners with a greater level of satisfaction. Moreover, telemedicine gives veterinarians an advantage over the competitors by increasing their clients' level of satisfaction with the care of their pets. However, in veterinary telemedicine, a current Veterinarian-Client-Patient-Relationship (VCPR) is needed to perform telemedicine according to current state laws and regulations.

                                                                                                         Label-Free Array Systems Label-free array systems are widely used in the drug discovery process by biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. A system works on principle of optical interferometry, impedance-based assays, and refractive index to identify and validate new molecules as the possible drug candidates. Moreover, the system helps to reduce the cost and time for drug identification and validation process. In the past few years, label-free array systems have taken center stage as an effective research tool in all major clinical drug discovery processes. Label-free array systems comprises two types of biosensors, namely optical and impedance-based biosensors, including techniques such as bio-layer interferometry, isothermal titration calorimetry, surface plasmon resonance, and others. Of which, surface plasmon resonance is the most commonly used technique. The main advantag

Cataract Surgery Devices have significantly improved over the years with rising emphasis on the safety of the patient and accuracy of the surgery

Image
                                                          Cataract Surgery Devices Cataract surgery involves replacing the natural lens of the eye with an intraocular lens. The condition causes a cloudy vision. The natural lens of the eye has become opaque. In order to correct this problem, a person may need this procedure. The surgery is commonly known as a lens replacement. Although it is not a traumatic procedure, it can be painful and requires several sessions. However, it is not the only option for this condition. A high-frequency ultrasound device is used during cataract surgery. The surgeon will remove the lens with the use of a suction device. The surgery can be done on the day of the procedure. A temporary prescription eye shield will help to recover faster. After the procedure, the patient will still need to wear glasses or contacts. One can even start a new activity right after the surgery. The process of recovery varies depending on the specific needs and the extent of the
