Proceedings ArticleDOI
Classification of bacterial samples as negative or positive for a UTI and antibiogram using surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy
TL;DR: This study can become the basis for identifying urine samples as positive or negative for a UTI and determining their antibiogram without requiring an overnight culture.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A new method for breast micro-calcification detection and characterization using digital temporal subtraction of mammogram pairs
TL;DR: Results show that temporal subtraction could be a valuable addition to CAD systems to assist radiologists in effectively detecting breast MCs.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Ultrahigh resolution and spectroscopic optical coherence tomography

TL;DR: In this article, in vivo optical coherence tomography imaging with unprecedented axial resolution of 1 um is achieved, approaching the level of conventional histopathology, and extraction of spatially resolved spectroscopic information is enabled to improve image contrast and to obtain functional or biochemical properties of the investigated tissue.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Urinary tract infection (UTI) multi-bacteria multi-antibiotic testing using surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS)
TL;DR: A rapid method of diagnosis and antibiogram for a bacterial infection was developed using Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) with silver nanoparticles, which can be applied directly to urine or blood samples, bypassing the need for overnight cultures.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Interventional optical coherence tomography for surgical guidance
TL;DR: This study investigates the use of high-speed OCT as an interventional imaging modality for surgical guidance and shows its feasibility for surgical diagnostics and for assessing microsurgical repairs of vessels and nerves.
