About the Presentation
Biomedical Optics and the Value of Quantum-Level Imaging
Optics is the single largest technology sector in medicine today, with successes broadly across nearly all medical specialties, especially in point-of-care, home care and diagnostic detector components.
Advances in camera technology have had an enormous influence, especially in areas such as robotic surgery, advanced displays and molecular sensing. There is also significant potential in monitoring technologies and advances in sensors.
In particular, quantum-level sensors that read out single-photon events per pixel have transformed X-ray imaging and radiation Cherenkov imaging. These technologies also have important value for capabilities such as depth sensing and lifetime-based imaging.
