Technical Advancements in Line-Field Confocal Optical Coherence Tomography for Improving the Management of Skin Cancer
Tue, Feb 28, 2023 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EST
Line-field confocal optical coherence tomography (LC-OCT) is an imaging technique based on a combination of reflectance confocal microscopy and time-domain OCT. It can generate cellular-resolution vertical images, horizontal cross-sectional images, and three-dimensional (3D) images, yielding the possibility for optical biopsies of skin tissue in vivo and in real time. Jonas Ogien, Ph.D., of DAMAE Medical introduces the basic principles of LC-OCT and shares an overview of new technical advancements based on the technique.
Soft Optical Systems as Biointegrated Technologies: From Biological Research to Clinical Health Care
Tue, Mar 7, 2023 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EST
Advanced optoelectronic systems that can intimately integrate with soft living tissues have the potential to accelerate progress in biological research and to serve as the foundations for new approaches in patient care. John Rogers, Ph.D., of Northwestern University describes foundational concepts in optics, device physics, and manufacturing processes for these types of technologies, along with examples of commercialized systems for neuroengineering and patient monitoring.
