Optical Coherence Tomography, OCT News
Optical Time-Stretch Brings Diagnostics to a New Timescale
Mar 1, 2013 — A new platform delivers the best of both worlds – throughput and accuracy – for biomedical and life sciences applications. Optical technology arguably has been playing a decisive role in advancing modern biomedicine. Enabling high detection sensitivity and/or high imaging resolution, optical microscopy and spectroscopy have been the gold standard adopted in all life sciences and clinical laboratories for shedding light on undeciphered biological processes – e.g., diseases...
3-D stress map reveals embryonic heart defects
CLEVELAND – Stresses induced in an embryonic heart by blood flow have been visualized for the first time in 3-D using an optical coherence tomography (OCT) method. The technique could provide new insight into how and why heart defects develop. A map of the...
Polarization-Sensitive OCT Monitors Tooth Decay
Jan 1, 2013 — Nondestructive polarization-sensitive OCT is likely to become a useful addition to the dentist’s armamentarium for assessing the depth and internal structure of lesions related to tooth decay. It also may be extremely valuable to dental...
Fourier Domain OCT Guides QCL Thermal Therapy
Dec 1, 2012 — Researchers share their demonstrations of real-time monitoring of 6.1-µm quantum cascade laser-based ablation and coagulation. Thanks to advances in laser therapy, lasers are now irreplaceable tools in modern medicine.1 Many laser systems are...
OCT images blood vessels beneath skin that feed cancer
VIENNA and MUNICH – A noninvasive optical coherence tomography method that maps the network of tiny blood vessels in the epidermis in three dimensions might soon help doctors better diagnose, monitor and treat skin cancer. Medical University Vienna scientists are the...
OCT images blood vessels that feed cancer
VIENNA and MUNICH – An optical coherence tomography (OCT) technique that noninvasively maps the network of tiny blood vessels in the epidermis could soon help doctors better diagnose, monitor and treat skin cancer. Scientists at Medical University Vienna (MUW) are the...
OCT, adaptive optics net €1M vision science award
LISBON, Portugal – Pioneers in optical coherence tomography and adaptive optics for retina visualization received the 2012 António Champalimaud Vision Award this fall in recognition of the techniques’ applications to in vivo study, diagnosis and...
SMART scalpel gives surgeons superhuman precision
BALTIMORE – A new “smart” surgical tool uses a specialized optical fiber sensor to compensate for almost imperceptible hand tremors by making hundreds of precise position corrections per second – fast enough to keep a surgeon’s hand on...
3-D Stress Map Reveals Embryonic Heart Defects
CLEVELAND, Nov. 1, 2012 — Stresses induced in an embryonic heart by blood flow have been visualized for the first time in 3-D using an optical coherence tomography (OCT) method. The technique could provide new insight into how and why heart defects develop.
OCT Images Blood Vessels that Feed Cancer
VIENNA and MUNICH, Oct. 9, 2012 — An optical coherence tomography technique that noninvasively maps the network of tiny blood vessels in the epidermis could soon help doctors better diagnose, monitor and treat skin cancer.
SMART Scalpel Gives Surgeons Superhuman Precision
BALTIMORE, Sept. 28, 2012 — A new "smart" surgical tool equipped with a specialized optical fiber sensor can compensate for almost imperceptible hand tremors by making hundreds of precise position corrections each second — fast enough to keep a surgeon’s hand on...
OCT, Adaptive Optics Net €1M Vision Science Award
LISBON, Portugal, Sept. 17, 2012 — Pioneers in optical coherence tomography and adaptive optics for retina visualization received the 2012 António Champalimaud Vision Award late last week in recognition of the techniques’ applications to in vivo study, diagnosis and...
Ophthalmic laser market growing
Sep 1, 2012 — As the population of the world ages, associated eye problems will mean significant growth for the ophthalmic laser market. The number of people 60 and older has tripled in the past 50 years. As of 2000, there were 606 million people over the...
OCT in Dermatology Training Opens in Bonn
BONN, Germany, July 13, 2012 — Private medical center Medizinisches Zentrum Bonn Friedensplatz will offer the first training workshop for clinicians on the use and applications of optical coherence tomography in dermatology.
OCT Device Could KO Ear Infections
CHAMPAIGN, Ill., June 1, 2012 — A new optical coherence tomography (OCT) device that can see difficult-to-detect bacteria behind the eardrum could help clinicians to better diagnose and treat chronic ear infections.
Compact Imaging Inc.
May 1, 2012 — Compact Imaging Inc. of Mountain View, Calif., has formed a collaborative research agreement with the National University of Ireland, Galway, and the University of Limerick in Ireland. The two-year project will combine NUI Galway’s OCT...
Bioptigen Inc.
Apr 1, 2012 — Technology company Bioptigen Inc. of Durham, N.C., has received clearance from Health Canada to begin marketing its handheld ophthalmic imaging systems for patient use. The Envisu series spectral domain ophthalmic imaging system uses low-power...
Is the Fountain of Youth Made of Light?
Apr 1, 2012 — The World Health Organization’s World Health Day 2012 has come and gone (April 7), but its theme, “Good health adds life to years,” is one we all can appreciate. It also is a message that may well have special significance for the...
OCT Moves from Clinic to OR to . . . Home?
Apr 1, 2012 — Optical coherence tomography has proved its worth in the physician’s office, but now it wants to make inroads into the surgical suite as well – and possibly beyond. Optical coherence tomography, or OCT, is a rapid, noncontact,...
Moving Noninvasive Cancer Imaging into the Clinic
Mar 1, 2012 — So you came up with this great idea for a medical device for cancer imaging, and even found a way to make it work. Now what? Several researchers involved with coherence imaging technologies discuss the challenges of clinical translation. You have...
OptiMedica Corp.
Mar 1, 2012 — Based in Santa Clara, Calif., OptiMedica Corp., a global ophthalmic device company, has received FDA 510(k) market clearance for its Catalys laser, a next-generation cataract surgery system. Catalys combines a femtosecond laser, integrated OCT...
FDA Clears Cataract Surgery Laser
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Dec. 30, 2011 — OptiMedica Corp., a global ophthalmic device company, received FDA 510(k) market clearance for its Catalys laser, a next-generation cataract surgery system. Catalys combines a femtosecond laser, integrated optical coherence tomography imaging and...
Biomolecules Show Their True Colors
DURHAM, N.C., Oct. 28, 2011 — After years of black-and-white and false-color 3-D molecular imaging, events beneath the surface of the skin can now be viewed in their true colors. A novel method detects and shows, for example, the vivid shades of red of hemoglobin as it is...
3-D OCT delves deep for improved cancer screening
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – A new optical coherence tomography system can look below the surface with greater detail than traditional screening methods can, enabling high-speed 3-D imaging of microscopic precancerous changes in the esophagus or colon. Endoscopy is the...
