prof steve l. Jacques Short course: tissue optics and moving biophotonics into the clinic

TUTOR:         Prof Steven L. Jacques, Oregon Health and Science University (see staff page for more details)

VENUE:         NUI Galway, Ireland; School of Physics, Room AO208

DATE:            May 1, 11:00 to May 2, 13:00

WEB:              http://tomi.nuigalway.ie/ and http://optics.nuigalway.ie/

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Session 1: Tissue optical properties, and spectroscopy/imaging

Session 2: Monte Carlo simulations of light transport

Session 3: Photothermal interactions

Real world examples including BiliChek – (Philips) and a polarisation camera for cancer margin detection will be discussed as they arise.

BIGSS 10: Please choose from a selection of recorded talks delivered by some of the worlds leading experts in biomedical optics and imaging.  The TOMI team wishes to thank the speakers for participating in the school and for allowing their lessons to be distributed freely.
