Laser apparatus for micro-volume tissue excision
This technology uses a laser to remove tiny pieces of tissue for analysis. The laser is shaped into a ring and can be combined with cooling techniques to minimize damage. Background The traditional histopathology workflow, while considered the gold standard for tissue diagnosis, suffers from several limitations. These include the invasiveness of biopsies,...

Nanotech for enhanced diagnostic imaging and therapeutic applications
Liposomal J-aggregates of Indocyanine Green are nanoparticles designed for enhanced photoacoustic imaging and photothermal therapy. They offer improved photostability, longer circulation, and efficient heating, hence their promise for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Background Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a promising non-invasive clinical...
