      Duke University School Receives a 2019 NIH Grant for $436,303 for Advanced A/LCI systems for Improved Clinical Utility. The principal investigator is Adam Wax. Below is a summary of the proposed work. There is a critical unmet need for in vivo detection of dysplasia in patients with Barrett's esophagus (BE), a neoplastic tissue state resulting from chronic acid reflux. BE is associated with an increased risk of esophageal cancer, a disease with a high morbidity rate. Patients with BE undergo periodic endoscopic surveillance with systematic biopsy to search for pre-cancerous, dysplastic tissues, at which point therapeutic treatment ...

      University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign Receives a 2019 NIH Grant for $405,348 for Intraoperative Polarization-Sensitive OCT for Assessing Breast Tumor Margins. The principal investigator is Stephen Boppart. Below is a summary of the proposed work. Breast cancer is a global healthcare burden, not only for the patients diagnosed with this disease, but also their families and friends. The surgical treatment of breast cancer, while successful, has significant limitations that increase patient anxiety, increase costs, and can increase the risk for local recurrence and lifelong post-operative complications. A primary limitation stems from the lack of an intraoperative microscopic assessment ...
