Biomedical Optics

 

   Our staff has gained a considerable experience in the field of biomedical optics and lasers. This experience allows us to carry-out specific, application and product-oriented design and development projects in the area of light-tissue interaction. We provide optimization and design of biomedical solid-state lasers, laser and flashlamp-based handpieces for the hair removal and skin photo rejuvenation, as well as special accessories for the treatment of spider and varicose veins, acne, vertigo, and tattoo removal. We also have some background in designing scanners for excimer laser-based eye keratectomy.

 

   We use FEMLAB finite element software along with Monte-Carlo simulations to model light propagation in biotissues and evaluate optical and thermal effects of the biomedical light treatment. To simulate the heating dynamics of biological tissues with full 3-D thermal field distribution, we use MATLAB, FlexPDE, FastFLO, and our own original software for solving the coupled set of heating and light transport equations.

Computer simulated map of light intensity distribution in the human skin, exposed to Nd:YAG laser radiation. The beam was focused with a high F-number objective as a part of confocal microscope system for subsurface imaging of human skin.

    Based on simulation results we optimize the optical design of light sources and beam-delivery systems for targeting particular tissues with maximum safety and efficacy. 

 

   

   We provide full consulting support to customers, involved in manufacturing of biomedical light products based on our design, including specific vendor recommendations and detailed description of quality control and testing procedures.
