Lissajous Scan From an Optical Fiber Scanner

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
Optical devices are frequently being used in medical applications to image lesions and malignancies, and to assist with surgical procedures. The advances in micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMSs) and optics led to the fabrication of flexible endoscopes

High resolution imaging of impacted CFRP composites with a fiber-optic laser-ultrasound scanner

open access: yesPhotoacoustics, 2016
Damage induced in polymer composites by various impacts must be evaluated to predict a component’s post-impact strength and residual lifetime, especially when impacts occur in structures related to human safety (in aircraft, for example).

Investigation of lateral geniculate nucleus volume and diffusion tensor imaging in patients with normal tension glaucoma using 7 tesla magnetic resonance imaging. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
BACKGROUND:There is evidence that glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disease involving the whole visual pathway. We prospectively examined potential benefits of volumetry of the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) using a new

Characterization and Pilot Human Trial of Dedicated Breast Ring Positron Emission Tomography (BRPET) System

open access: yesInstruments, 2021
We describe the design and performance of BRPET, a novel dedicated breast PET (dbPET) scanner designed to maximize visualization of posterior regions of the breast. BRPET uses prone imaging geometry and a 12-module detector ring built from pixelated LYSO

Optofluidic Micromachined Platform for Refractive Index Measurement

open access: yesChemosensors, 2022
We present a combination of micromachined optofluidic platforms equipped with a fiber-optic sensing configuration based on a three-path Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) for simultaneous measurement of the refractive index of liquids and the ...

Quantitative MR thermometry based on phase-drift correction PRF shift method at 0.35 T

open access: yesBioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2018
Background Noninvasive magnetic resonance thermometry (MRT) at low-field using proton resonance frequency shift (PRFS) is a promising technique for monitoring ablation temperature, since low-field MR scanners with open-configuration are more suitable for

Axonal damage in the optic radiation assessed by white matter tract integrity metrics is associated with retinal thinning in multiple sclerosis

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2020
Introduction: White matter damage in the visual pathway is common in multiple sclerosis (MS) and is associated with retinal thinning, although the underlying mechanism of association remains unclear. The goal of this work was to evaluate the presence and

Angularly Resolved Deep Brain Fluorescence Imaging Using a Single Optical Fiber

open access: yesInternational Journal of Optics, 2018
In this article, we report the development of a minimally invasive fiber optic based fluorescence probe which can reach deep brain objects and measure the intensity and spatial distribution of fluorescence signals in the tissue. In this design, the brain
