Patent number: 12245840Abstract: A portable, modular handheld imaging system is disclosed. The modular system comprises a first housing portion and a second housing portion. The first housing portion includes at least one excitation light source. A first filter is configured to detect and permit passage of selected optical signals responsive to illumination with the excitation light to a first image sensor. A second filter is configured to detect and permit passage of selected optical signals responsive to illumination of the target surface with white light to a second image sensor. The second housing portion is configured to releasably receive the first housing portion. The second housing portion includes a display and a processor configured to receive the detected fluorescent and white light optical signals and to output a representation of the target surface to the display based on the detected optical signals.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2020Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: MolecuLight Inc.Inventors: Ralph S. Dacosta, Simon Treadwell, Connor Wright, Kimberlyn Dampitan, Todd Daynes, Todd Meaney, Carl Annis, Danielle Dunham, Nitesh Mistry

Publication number: 20250069224Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods, systems, and devices for coregistering imaging data to form three-dimensional superimposed images of a biological target such as a wound, a tumor, or a surgical bed. A three-dimensional map can be generated by projecting infrared radiation at a target area, receiving reflected infrared radiation, and measuring depth of the target area. A three-dimensional white light image can be created from a captured two-dimensional white light image and the three-dimensional map. A three-dimensional fluorescence image can be created from a captured two-dimensional fluorescence image and the three-dimensional map. The three-dimensional white light image and the three-dimensional fluorescence image can be aligned using one or more fiducial markers to form a three-dimensional superimposed image. The superimposed image can be used to track wound healing and to excise cancerous tissues, for example, breast tumors. Images can be in the form of videos.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2024Publication date: February 27, 2025Applicant: UNIVERSITY HEALTH NETWORKInventors: Ralph S. DaCosta, Danielle Dunham

Publication number: 20240366145Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for thermal imaging of a wound are provided. A multi-modal imaging device is configured to capture fluorescence images and thermal images of a target such as a wound. The device is further configured to determine a temperature differential between two user-selected regions of one or more of the captured images and provide an output indicative of the temperature differential. The output display also includes the fluorescence image.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2024Publication date: November 7, 2024Applicant: MOLECULIGHT INC.Inventors: Ralph S. DaCosta, Garry MORGAN, Samuel J. SALEMI, Danielle Dunham, Nitesh MISTRY

Publication number: 20210228300Abstract: A drape for use with fluorescence-based imaging and white-light imaging includes a drape body. The drape body is configured to limit passage of electromagnetic radiation including light through the drape body to an interior imaging environment defined by the drape body such that electromagnetic radiation including ambient light within the interior imaging environment does not exceed a predetermined threshold. The drape also includes a connecting element permanently coupled to the drape body. The connecting element defines a hole in the drape body. The connecting element is configured to attach the drape to a portable, handheld imaging device.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 9, 2019Publication date: July 29, 2021Applicant: MOLECULIGHT INC.Inventors: Ralph DaCOSTA, Garrett VERMEY, Nitesh MISTRY, Danielle DUNHAM, Simon TREADWELL, Sonia GULIA
