| Title: |
Method And Device
For Phase Contrast Optical Tomography |
| Case # |
276 |
| Inventors: |
Huabei Jiang |
| Summary: |
The basis of the invention is an algorithm
that can generate a map of human tissue from light scattering/absorption
data using known tomographic techniques. This is a noninvasive
technique and does not expose a subject to damaging radiation.
The data, or resultant map, precisely identify and localize different
types of tissue, such that extremely small malignant tumors can
be identified/located in a mass of "normal" tissue.
The method is useful in a variety of clinical settings, breast
cancer diagnosis is a prime example. |
| Applications: |
Applications world wide in hospitals,
radiological labs, clinics and probably imaging companies currently
producing X-ray and CAT scan or related equipment. |
