Ultrasound

Ultra-High frequency is the highest resolution of medical ultrasound available today. This groundbreaking technique opens up to new possibilities, for medical imaging, with resolution as fine as less than half a grain of sand.  Vevo® F2 With the VEVO® F2, FUJIFILM VisualSonics, is a unique and flexible system for research use, with the possibility of Ultra high to low frequency imaging (71–1 MHz).

Gaze tracking

The study of eye movements is an important source of information for researchers (eg neurobiologists, psychologists and optometrists) and healthcare professionals (eg neurologists, ophthalmologists, ear-nose-throat doctors, orthoptists). Research has shown that the study of eye movements is a powerful tool for understanding how our psyche and our brain work. Understanding all eye movement disorder

Amyloidosis

Amyloidosis is a rare disease characterized by a buildup of abnormal amyloid deposits in the body. Amyloid deposits can build up in the heart, brain, kidneys, spleen and other parts of the body.  Amyloid in the heart reduces the ability to fill with blood between heartbeats. Less blood is pumped with each beat, and the patient experience shortness of breath. If amyloidosis affects your heart's ele

Neonatal CNS Circulation

Ultrasonic contrast-free microvascular imaging using ultrafast Doppler is an emerging technology which has enabled microvascular imaging in brain, tumor vascularization imaging, and functional ultrasound. However, the technology has, as far as we know, mostly be used in situations with little or no motion artefacts and using clinical transducer frequencies. The rabbit pup brain is a very useful mo

Goniometry

The goniometer employs the same light sources as the multispectral microscope, but has an extended capability to measure the scattering properties of a sample by determining the preferred angles light choses to scatter into. The goniometer is therefore important when characterizing the optical properties of human tissue, which in turn lays a foundation for proper interpretation of signals generate

Reconstructive Surgery

Knowledge of how blood perfusion is affected during and after reconstructive surgery is of great importance to predict the survival of grafts and flaps. When commonly used reconstructive procedures were developed a century ago, they were based on empirical observations of clinical outcome. However, today modern, non-invasive techniques are available to monitor perfusion during and after surgery. A

Malaria

Malaria is responsible for over half a million deaths annually, however, these are primarily in the developing parts of the World. The reason why it remains a problem in only a few places is because the incidence is particularly high and the methods of diagnosing the parasitic illness are not efficient enough. Moreover, understanding the behaviour of the plasmodium parasite vector (the female  Ano

Breast Cancer

The purpose of this project is to develop and evaluate three non-invasive examination methods for the diagnosis of breast tumors, namely photoacoustics, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and ultrasound-based tissue characteristics. It is our hope that the methods will be used for primary diagnostic of breast cancer, planning of breast cancer surgery but also to evaluate the given preoperative cance

SKIN CANCER

Principal investigator: Professor Malin Malmsjö This project focus on evaluating and optimizing PA imaging as a method to detect and outline skin tumors. We are investigating the PA spectral signature of different tumor cells to enable automatic measure­ment of the tumor borders, and test the developed method in the clinical setting, ultimately developing PA imaging into a diagnostic tool for skin

Oxygen Saturation

Measuring the oxygen saturation is of great value in a wide range of medical fields. For instance, tumor progression and malignancy is strongly dependent on tumor hypoxia. Monitoring of cerebral oxygen saturation can be used in the diagnosis of cerebral desaturations in stroke patients. In cardiovascular disease and diabetes the measurement of abnormalities of the microcirculation can monitor the

Giant Cell Arteritis

This project focus on evaluating and optimizing photoacoustic (PA) imaging as a method to non invasively diagnose giant cell arthritis. Giant cell arteritis (GCA) also known as temporal arteritis is a sight- and life-threatening, granulomatous large-vessel condition. Typical symptoms are headache, fever, fatigue, night sweats and weight loss. GCA may not only cause permanent loss of vision, but al
