The multi-spectral signal properties of multiple reference optical coherence tomography
(NUI Galway, 2019-07-05)
Efforts to reduce the size and costs of optical coherence tomography systems (OCT) for consumer
applications, in general, focus on Fourier-domain OCT, due to its potential to be integrated on an optical chip, implementing ...
Advancements in structural and functional imaging using Fourier domain optical coherence tomography
(NUI Galway, 2020-07-29)
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive optical imaging modality based on low coherence interferometry that enables high resolution, cross sectional imaging in biological tissues and materials. One major ...
Photoacoustic imaging with clinical, preclinical, and quantitative applications
(NUI Galway, 2020-11-20)
Photoacoustic (PA) imaging (PAI) is an emerging biomedical imaging modality that combines optical absorption contrast with ultrasonic resolution and imaging depth. Major research has been carried out into PAI in recent ...
Depth of field reduction for miniature-camera imaging
(NUI Galway, 2020-08-25)
This thesis investigates the reduction of depth-of- field for miniature camera systems, such as the ones embedded in smartphones. The work on digital shallow depth-of- field is already mature and implemented in most modern ...
Laser Ablation for Microfluidic Applications: Simulation and Experimental Analysis of Microfluidic Geometries Fabricated with an Excimer Laser Incorporating a Novel Intelligent Pinhole Mask
(2011-09-30)
Excimer lasers have proven to be a useful tool for the precision removal of thin layers of polymer material. With the advent of polymer microfluidics, excimer lasers may have a role to play in the production of small volume ...
Radiobiological modelling in Radiation Oncology
(2011-09-30)
Biological models potentially o er the ability to predict the response of tumour control to irradiation. A tumour control probability (TCP) model with excellent radiobiological pedigree was developed and examined to predict ...
Physical and bio cellular response of laser induced periodic surface structures formed using a femtosecond laser on a platinum alloy
(2015-09-30)
Minimally invasive implantable medical devices represent a major advance in the treatment of obstructive coronary artery disease with stent implantation becoming the standard coronary angioplasty procedure. Such devices ...
