Biophotonics: Cellular Resolution Endoscopic MEMS Imaging Devices

在体内进行内窥镜细胞水平成像的技术的发展将对生物医学研究和卫生保健产生强大的影响。该项目是加州大学洛杉矶分校专门从事MEMS光学技术的研究人员和麻省理工学院专门从事生物医学光学成像的研究人员之间的合作。研究人员建议开发新的微扫描MEMS设备，并通过内窥镜将其与光学相干断层扫描、共焦显微镜和光学相干显微镜相结合，创造一种用于体内成像的新技术。将进行将新型MEMS器件设计与生物医学成像和临床可行性研究相结合的垂直整合研究。

0119494WuThe development of a technology for performing endoscopic cellular level imaging inside the body would have a powerful impact on biomedical research and health care. This program is a collaboration between investigators at UCLA specializing in MEMS optical technology and investigators at MIT specializing in biomedical optical imaging. The investigators propose to develop new microscanning MEMS devices and endoscopically integrate them with optical coherence tomography, confocal microscopy, and optical coherence microscopy, creating a new technology for internal body imaging. Vertically integrated studies combining novel MEMS device design with biomedical imaging and clinical feasibility studies will be performed.
