RESEARCH INTERESTS

To use power of biophotonics system for medical diagnostics and guided therapy, my research interests is focused on:

  • Conducting noninvasive in vivo diagnosis and guided therapy using optical imaging technologies (functional SS-OCT & biomechanical Brillouin microscopy) in the following diseases:

Ophthalmic Diseases

Neurodegenerative Diseases

Heart Diseases

Cancerous Diseases

Retina degenerative diseases

Cornea diseases

Multiple sclerosis (MS)

Atherosclerosis

 

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

Optic neuritis (ON)

Color blindness

Glaucoma

Keratoconus

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Super-high resolution optical microscopy for characterizing organelle structure/function e.g. live cancer cell

  • Noninvasive monitoring of 3D engineered tissue structure/composition/function using optical microscopy

  • Second harmonic generation spectral domain OCT by utilizing nanoprobes

  • Point of care optical imaging using miniaturized biosensors

  • Ultra-high speed wide band tunable laser source

  • Polarization sensitive SS-OCT

  • Phase speckle contrast SS-OCT

  • Functional SS-OCT

  • Optical Phase Coherence Microscopy (OPCM)
