Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090005692Optical Imaging Method For Tissue Characterization - There is provided a method for detecting and characterizing abnormalities within biological tissues. The method involves the characterization of the optical properties of the tissue to derive relative values of physiological properties between normal and suspicious regions of the tissue. In some aspects of the invention optical imaging and other imaging modalities are combined to detect and identify a disease state of the tissue.01-01-2009

20080260647Method for Fluorescence Tomographic Imaging - There is provided a method for determining the concentration of a fluorophore in a medium using moments of order k of the fluorescence signal. The method allows higher fidelity 3-dimensional reconstructions of the fluorophore in the medium. The method can be applied in imaging of fluorophores in biological tissues.10-23-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080218727METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OPTICAL IMAGE RECONSTRUCTION USING CONTOUR DETERMINATION - The present invention relates to a method and a system for optical imaging of an object in transmission configuration. The method and system obtain contour coordinates of the object using source/detector configurations references and acquire optical data from a region of interest (ROI) of the object. Then, the method and system apply a weighting factor to said optical data as a function of the contour coordinates, and reconstruct an image of the ROI using the weighted optical data and photon diffusion equation.09-11-2008
