A Fluorescence-Guided Laser Ablation System for Removal of Residual Cancer in a Mouse Model of Soft Tissue Sarcoma.
Lazarides, Alexander L; Whitley, Melodi J; Strasfeld, David B; Cardona, Diana M; Ferrer, Jorge M; Mueller, Jenna L; Fu, Henry L; ... (12 authors) (Theranostics, 2016)The treatment of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) generally involves tumor excision with a wide margin. Although advances in fluorescence imaging make real-time detection of cancer possible, removal is limited by the precision ... -
A low-cost, portable, and quantitative spectral imaging system for application to biological tissues.
Fu, Henry L; Yu, Bing; Lo, Justin Y; Palmer, Greg M; Kuech, Thomas F; Ramanujam, Nimmi (Opt Express, 2010-06-07)The ability of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy to extract quantitative biological composition of tissues has been used to discern tissue types in both pre-clinical and clinical cancer studies. Typically, diffuse reflectance ... -
Data set for "Quantitative segmentation of fluorescence microscopy images of heterogeneous tissue: Application to the detection of residual disease in tumor margins"
Brown, JQ; Dodd, L; Geradts, J; Harmany, Z; Kennedy, S; Kim, Y; Kirsch, David Guy; ... (11 authors) (2013-03-12)This is data that is published in the article "Quantitative segmentation of fluorescence microscopy images of heterogeneous tissue: Application to the detection of residual disease in tumor margins". -
Design of a Novel Low Cost Point of Care Tampon (POCkeT) Colposcope for Use in Resource Limited Settings.
Lam, Christopher T; Krieger, Marlee S; Gallagher, Jennifer E; Asma, Betsy; Muasher, Lisa C; Schmitt, John W; Ramanujam, Nimmi (PLoS One, 2015)INTRODUCTION: Current guidelines by WHO for cervical cancer screening in low- and middle-income countries involves visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) of the cervix, followed by treatment during the same visit or a ... -
Portable, Fiber-Based, Diffuse Reflection Spectroscopy (DRS) Systems for Estimating Tissue Optical Properties.
Vishwanath, Karthik; Chang, Kevin; Klein, Daniel; Deng, Yu Feng; Chang, Vivide; Phelps, Janelle E; Ramanujam, Nimmi (Appl Spectrosc, 2011-02-01)Steady-state diffuse reflection spectroscopy is a well-studied optical technique that can provide a noninvasive and quantitative method for characterizing the absorption and scattering properties of biological tissues. Here, ... -
Structured Illumination Microscopy and a Quantitative Image Analysis for the Detection of Positive Margins in a Pre-Clinical Genetically Engineered Mouse Model of Sarcoma.
Fu, Henry L; Mueller, Jenna L; Whitley, Melodi J; Cardona, Diana M; Willett, Rebecca M; Kirsch, David G; Brown, J Quincy; ... (8 authors) (2016)Intraoperative assessment of surgical margins is critical to ensuring residual tumor does not remain in a patient. Previously, we developed a fluorescence structured illumination microscope (SIM) system with a single-shot ...
