  • Cancer detection and adaptive dose optimization treatment system
    Patent number: 7328060
    Abstract: The present invention utilizes a series of optical and electronic elements to detect and image cancerous and/or pre-cancerous cells in living tissue. The invention further uses the images thus obtained to adaptively and dynamically shape a treatment light beam so as to maximize the beam's intensity in proportion to the areas with the most cancer or pre-cancer and to minimize the irradiation of normal tissue by the beam.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 12, 2003
    Date of Patent: February 5, 2008
    Assignee: Science & Engineering Associates, Inc.
    Inventors: Gregory C. Mooradian, Steven Saggese, Michael D. Tocci, Nora C. Tocci
  • System and method incorporating ultraviolet spectral fluorescence technology in sensor applications
    Publication number: 20050070025
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of a sensor arrangement may combine various technologies into an integrated sensor system operative to detect and to identify hazardous biological aerosols. An aerosol sampler may collect and concentrate particles acquired from the ambient environment, eliminating or minimizing particles that are potentially not relevant to the ensuing analysis. An integrated electro-optical subsystem or other detection technology may enable fast, accurate measurements of fluorescence characteristics associated with the acquired sample material, and may additionally identify biological agents present in the sample.
