Abstract: A system for supporting an image capturing device includes a supporting device supporting the image capturing device, an extension device connected to the supporting device and extendable to a desired length, a lighting device mounted to the supporting device, and a control device controlling the image capturing device. In certain examples, the system includes a supporting device supporting a detachable case of the image capturing device, an extension device connected to the supporting device and extendable to a desired length. The case includes a lighting device to illuminate a user when taking a photograph using the image capturing device. The system further includes a control device controlling the lighting device of the case. In certain examples, the extension device is directly coupled to the case.

Abstract: Systems and associated methods are provided for improving detection and measurement of elements in a medium, particularly the measurement of gaseous bubbles in liquid medium, such as blood injected into a patient's body. The systems include a radiation emitter to emit radiation for traversing through a medium, and an analyzer subsystem to receive and to analyze the traversed radiation for presence and/or absence of gaseous elements in the medium. The methods include receiving at least one collection of data corresponding to at least one emitted radiation traversed through a medium, analyzing said collection of data for at least one predetermined condition; and generating a response upon detection of at least one predetermined condition.
