Ophthalmic OCT on a Chip (OCTCHIP)

Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

Silicon photonics is expected to leverage-off many of the advances made in CMOS electronics. International R&D efforts in this field have so far been mainly focused on the silicon-on-insulator (SOI) photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology platform because it is predestined for datacom, high-performance computing and telecom applications. However, SOI based integrated optical waveguides cannot ...

Personalized diagnosis and treatment of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycaemia caused by beta-cell pathology (BETACURE)

Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2018,

Background:Hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia (HH) is a potentially lethal disease caused by over functioning beta cells derived from the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. Lethal HH and brain damage is a problem especially in infants with congenital HH. Current therapeutic approaches are associated with severe side effects/morbidity (diabetes, exocrine pancreas insufficiency etc.) considered acceptabl ...

OPTICAL BIOPSY PEN: A COMPACT AND LOW-COST DIAGNOSTIC TOOL FOR DERMATOLOGY BASED ON HIGH-PERFORMING INTEGRATED OCT (BIOPSYPEN)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an emerging optical diagnosis that enables in vivo tomographic visualization for non-invasive optical biopsy. OCT has proven its value primarily in ophthalmology, but recently also in dermatology. However, wide adoption has not taken place due to size and cost limitations as well as non-existence of handheld devices.Hence BIOPSYPEN will develop a new OCT gener ...
