Fast diagnostic cancer imaging technique project showcased at Photonics West 2014

Feb. 18, 2014

A project funded by the European Commission’s Seventh Framework Programme saw LLTech,CMOSIS, and Adimec collaborate on a non-invasive optical imaging system used to quickly obtain images at the cellular level to assist in diagnoses and biopsies. The CAReIOCA project began in 2012 with the purpose of providing a medical tool for better localization and analysis of cancer biopsies in the operating room in order to "reduce failure and reoperation rates in pre-operative diagnosis." CMOSIS was tasked with the development of an image sensor, while Adimec and LLTech were tasked with developing a CMOS camera for full-field optical coherence tomography imaging. >>>Read more
