Imaging Method Noninvasively Measures Placental Health
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 24, 2022 — An optical technique for measuring placental blood flow and oxygenation in real time provides information about placental hemodynamics that could aid in the early detection of adverse pregnancy outcomes. The technique is the result of a collaboration between the University of Pennsylvania and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. The multimodal instrument developed by the research team combines concurrent frequency-domain diffuse optical spectroscopy with ultrasound imaging.
Startup Integrates Research-Grade Brain Imaging into Wearable Cap
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 31, 2022 — Neurotechnology company Kernel has developed a wearable headset device for brain measurement. The device, called Kernel Flow, is based on time-domain functional near-infrared spectroscopy (TD-fNIRS) — considered the gold standard for...
NIR Spectroscopy Could Provide Window into AD Pathology, Therapeutics
BEDFORD, Mass., Sept. 1, 2021 — To detect Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in its early stages, researchers at the VA Bedford and VA Boston Healthcare systems developed a noninvasive optical technique that uses near-infrared spectroscopy to identify changes in the brain by capturing...
Inline Spectroscopy Boosts Pharmaceutical Processing and Quality
Mar 1, 2021 — Laboratory analysis of in-process pharmaceutical materials has historically included many low-value-added steps, and yet it fails to consistently prevent waste. It is also disruptive to the manufacturing process. In this conventional methodology —...
Spectroscopy Becomes a Potent Part of Pharmaceutical Production
Jan 26, 2021 — Fallout from the outbreak of COVID-19 continues to ripple across all sectors, and the photonics industry is no exception. But while the virus has raised challenges for many businesses, it has created opportunities for others. Innovative treatments...
Using VIS-NIR Spectroscopy to Quantify Soil Contamination
LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 18, 2020 — Researchers at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln have found a new method to assess oil contamination in soil by using VIS-NIR spectroscopy. The technique has significant advantages over previous methods. Traditional methods of analyzing samples are...
The New Technologies Shaping Near-Infrared Spectroscopy
Jan 9, 2020 — Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is the branch of vibrational spectroscopy related to the molecular absorption of light between ~750 to 2500 nm, which has a variety of industrial and medical applications. This region of the electromagnetic spectrum...
Wearable NIRS Device Reveals How Seals Prepare to Dive
ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, June 24, 2019 — Scientists at the University of St. Andrews have created a wearable, noninvasive device based on near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) that can be used to investigate blood volume and oxygenation patterns in freely diving marine mammals, such as seals....
NIR Spectroscopy Enables Accurate Evaluation of Osteoarthritis
KUOPIO, Finland, Oct. 22, 2018 — An arthroscopic NIR spectroscopic probe, developed at the University of Eastern Finland, could be used to quantitatively assess the health of joint tissues, improving physicians’ ability to detect initial signs of post-traumatic osteoarthritis...
NIR Chemical Imaging Can Help Ensure Safety in Pharma Manufacturing
QUEBEC CITY, April 2, 2018 — Researchers evaluated the ability of NIR chemical imaging (NIR CI) to monitor the concentration of pharmaceutical ingredients in tableting powder over a wide area. Results showed that NIR CI-based predictions of concentration could potentially be...
Shrinking FT-NIR Spectrometers Empower Consumers, Businesses
Aug 22, 2017 — Chip-scale sensor integration has brought us to the edge of new market opportunities that are poised to transform business practices and consumer lifestyles. The ability to incorporate miniaturized sensors into small devices and broad networks means...
Commerce, Health and Safety Benefitting From Spectroscopy
