Technological innovation in sensor development will lead to greater utilisation
in medicine and healthcare. Miniaturisation, microfluidics, nanotechnology,
and developments in electrochemical, optical and other sensing technolo-
gies are all rapidly advancing leading to lower cost, faster, and more diverse
applications.
