Polarization-sensitive hyperspectral imaging of human skin: From system design to clinical validation (Conference Presentation)
2020
We present the development and validation of a new approach for quantitative functional imaging of human skin based on the machine learning technique for the analysis of the hyperspectral skin images. The considered skin parameters include blood volume fraction, blood oxygenation, melanin content, and the epidermal layer thickness. Additionally, the degree of residual polarization of the reflected light has been analyzed. The validity of the approach has been confirmed by the initial preclinical tests with the tissue-mimicking phantoms, functional in-vivo skin tests, and pilot clinical study of type II diabetic patients. The proposed technique has great potential to be implemented in clinic…
Polar nanoregions in Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PMN): insights from a supercell approach
2011
Abstract We report construction of a model of polar nanoregions in the PMN relaxor ferroelectric based on first-principles lattice dynamics for chemically ordered supercells [S.A. Prosandeev et al., Phys. Rev. B 70, 134110 (2004)], combined with invariance under permutations and dipole-dipole interaction as a source supporting randomly oriented residual polarization. Representative analytical estimates of polar nanore-gion — supercell mapping reproduce both nonzero local and zero macroscopic polarization of the structure, as well as the temperature change of the supercell anisotropy at cooling and field cooling.
Assessment of age-related skin changes using hyperspectral polarization imaging
2019
Abstract We report a development of hyperspectral polarization imaging approach for assessment of age-related skin changes. The degree of residual polarization is used as a quantitative marker of the age-related pathological malformations. The developed approach in frame of express analysis of the degree of residual polarization in each pixel of the image are shown.
