Photoacoustic Imaging Using a Versatile Acoustic Lens

Applications:Photoacoustic imaging (also called optoacoustic or thermoacoustic imaging) has the potential to image animal or human organs with simultaneous high contrast and high spatial resolution. The photoacoustic signal is small and needs a mechanism to focus it on an image plane without degradation. This technology improves the signal to noise...

Novel Intra-Ocular Pressure Regulating Device

Applications:The current invention proposes a novel intra-ocular pressure regulating device to aid in current glaucoma research and to treat human eye conditions such as hypotony (low eye pressure) which when chronic, can lead to debilitating loss of vision. This is based on a novel eye pressure regulated animal model of reversible elevated eye pressure...
