‘Seeing the invisible’: New tech enables deep tissue imaging during surgery

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a state-of-the-art technique that captures and processes information across a given electromagnetic spectrum. Unlike traditional imaging techniques that capture light intensity at specific wavelengths, HSI collects a full spectrum at each pixel in an image. This rich spectral data enables the distinction between different materials and substances based on their unique … Read more

‘Seeing the invisible’: New tech enables deep tissue imaging during surgery

The ‘ultrasound-photoacoustic dual-modal imaging system’ combines molecular imaging contrast with ultrasound imaging, and it can visualize molecular and structural information inside the body in real-time without any ionizing radiation. This advantage gives it the potential to enhance medical diagnosis by providing diverse physiological and histological information, ensuring greater accuracy and safety for patients. However, optical … Read more
