OCT Developments Address Skin

Recent developments in optical coherence tomography (OCT) address skin cancer diagnosis. MedLumics (Madrid, Spain) has launched a three-year initiative to translate research into new clinical applications—with help from $4.9 million (€3.6 million) in Series A funding from EU joint investors. Called the BiopsyPen Project, the initiative is led by MedLumics and the Medical University of Vienna (Austria), along with European members including VTT Finland (Espoo, Finland), Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands, Exalos (Schlieren, Switzerland), the Polytechnic University of Madrid, and Optocap (Livingston, Scotland). The organizations are working to develop a handheld system for point-of-care diagnosis ...
