Toward fast malaria detection by secondary speckle sensing microscopy
2012
Diagnosis of malaria must be rapid, accurate, simple to use, portable and low cost, as suggested by the World Health Organization (WHO). Despite recent efforts, the gold standard remains the light microscopy of a stained blood film. This method can detect low parasitemia and identify different species of Plasmodium. However, it is time consuming, it requires well trained microscopist and good instrumentation to minimize misinterpretation, thus the costs are considerable. Moreover, the equipment cannot be easily transported and installed. In this paper we propose a new technique named "secondary speckle sensing microscopy" ((SM)-M-3) based upon extraction of correlation based statistics of s…
Measurement of haemodynamics of exercising and non-exercising vastus lateralis muscle with hybrid diffuse optics
2016
We present simultaneous diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) and time resolved spectroscopy (TR NIRS) measurements on exercising and non-exercising vastus lateralis muscle. We discuss the results at two different exercise levels.
