Diffuse optical tomography to monitor the photocoagulation front during interstitial photothermal therapy: Numerical simulations and measurements in tissue-simulating phantoms
(De Gruyter, 2014-08-06)Near-infrared interstitial photothermal therapy (PTT) is currently undergoing clinical trials as an alternative to watchful waiting or radical treatments in patients with low/intermediate-risk focal prostate cancer. ... -
Freehand diffuse optical spectroscopy imaging for intraoperative identification of major venous and arterial vessels underlying peritoneal fat: An in vivo demonstration in a pig model
(SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, 2017-10-30)Inadvertent injury to important anatomic structures is a significant risk in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) that potentially requires conversion to an open procedure, which results in increased morbidity and mortality. ... -
Hybrid positron detection and optical coherence tomography system: Design, calibration, and experimental validation with rabbit atherosclerotic models
(SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, 2005-07-01)We evaluate the performance of our novel hybrid optical coherence tomography (OCT) and scintillating probe, demonstrate simultaneous OCT imaging and scintillating detection, and validate the system using an atherosclerotic ... -
Perspective review on solid-organ transplant: Needs in point-of-care optical biomarkers
(SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, 2018-08-29)Solid-organ transplant is one of the most complex areas of modern medicine involving surgery. There are challenging opportunities in solid-organ transplant, specifically regarding the deficiencies in pathology workflow or ...
