Maximilian Waldner is a clinician scientist with a specialization in gastroenterology. Since the beginning of his scientific career at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, he has been interested in applications of optical imaging techniques for the evaluation of inflammatory diseases and canc...
Oliver Friedrich had a quite diverse education, studying Medicine and Physics at University of Heidelberg, then specializing as Physiologist and Biophysicist before finally ending up at FAU as Biotechnologist with a strong focus on label-free optical technologies development and applications. In bet...
In his latest publication, Florian Kordon presents a “Multi-Stage Platform for (Semi-)Automatic Planning in Reconstructive Orthopedic Surgery”. He developed a deep-learning algorithm for anatomical feature detection, which enables precise pre- and intra-operative surgery planning based on 2D X-ray i...
Thermal lensing is an unwanted effect in optics used for high-power laser imaging. The high light intensity causes a heat up of the lenses which induces a focus shift. To tackle this issue, Phillip Rall recently presented a “Simulation and compensation of thermal lensing in high-power optical system...
Microcirculation describes the circulation of blood in the smallest vessels. The publication of Moritz Späth deals with the “Determination of the diameter of simulated human capillaries using shifted position‐diffuse reflectance imaging”. Using Monte-Carlo simulations, he showed that this non-invasi...
The conference paper “Automatic Path Planning for Safe Guide Pin Insertion in PCL Reconstruction Surgery” by Florian Kordon presents a time-saving pathway to optimize drill positioning in ligament surgery.
Therefore, anatomical features are extracted from X-ray images using deep learning techniqu...
