Monitoring the Response of Port Wine Stain Birthmarks to Laser Therapy With Wide-field Functional Imaging Technologies

Overview

The researcher develop non-invasive imaging modalities for assessment of port wine stain during laser therapy treatment of Port Wine Stain. The imaging modalities will be used to guide immediate retreatment of regions of persistent perfusion during the procedure.

Full Title of Study: “Monitoring the Response of Port Wine Stain Birthmarks to Laser Therapy With Wide-field”

Study Type

  • Study Type: Observational
  • Study Design
    • Time Perspective: Prospective
  • Study Primary Completion Date: April 2018

Detailed Description

The researcher can use imaging system operates by projecting low-power near-infrared structured light patterns on to the tissue of interest in a non-contact, reflection geometry and then capturing the reflectance with a camera.The system can image the depth-resolved optical properties of in-vivo tissues, allowing rapid, non-invasive visualization of sub-surface structures of Port Wine Stain.
