RSOM demonstrates high-resolution imaging of tumor microvasculature and targeted therapy response

In a study published in Nature Biomedical Engineering, raster-scanning optoacoustic mesoscopy (RSOM) provided an unprecedented means of studying tumor vasculature during therapy. Commercialized by the Munich-based company iThera Medical, this technology enabled non-invasive investigation of in vivo tumor response in high resolution. In the ongoing search for new and better means of combating cancer, localized […]

Translational study demonstrates value of MSOT imaging for the assessment of disease progression in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

A translational study conducted at the University Hospital Erlangen and published in Nature Medicine demonstrates that Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography (MSOT) can be used to visualize and quantify changes in tissue composition associated with the progression of the rare muscle disease Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). While the established clinical outcome measures largely rely on physiological and […]

Adalbert Czerny Award 2019 goes to Dr. med. Ferdinand Knieling

Dr. Ferdinand Knieling from the University Hospital Erlangen was awarded the Adalbert Czerny Award 2019 from the German Society for Pediatrics and Youth Medicine (DGKJ) for his work on innovative diagnostic methods. He was the first to apply a newly developed multispectral optoacoustic imaging method, which non-invasively provides information about tissue composition, on patients with […]
