Collaborations

Micro-Ring Resonator Ultrasound Detector

CEVO collaborates with research institutions worldwide to supply our unique optically transparent micro-ring resonator ultrasound detector for delivered imaging and sensing investigations.

Collaborators

Visible-light Optical Coherence Tomography (vis-OCT)

Vis-OCT machine

Developed by CEVO investigators, visible-light optical coherence tomography (vis-OCT) is an advanced imaging technology that has been adopted by a growing number of institutions worldwide to aid in studies of topics including glaucoma, acute ocular hypertension, hypertension, retinal cell therapy, and myopia.

Visible-light optical coherence tomography is an optical interference-based high-speed, high-resolution, cross-sectional imaging technology with widespread applications in both fundamental biomedical investigations and clinical diagnoses as well as the management of various diseases. CEVO focuses on developing OCT technologies for hemodynamic and new functional imaging, and ultrahigh spatial resolution imaging. Whereas most commercial and investigational OCTs use near-infrared light, we can image complete metabolic parameters - including blood flow, hemoglobin oxygen saturation, and the metabolic rate of oxygen - in microcirculations using vis-OCT and sophisticated inverse algorithms. We apply our functional OCT technology to better understand blinding diseases and visual functions.
