Abstract:

The overall purpose of the dissertation is to design and develop novel optical imaging systems that require minimal or no mechanical scanning to reduce the acquisition time for extracting image data from biological tissue samples. Two imaging modalities have been focused upon: a parallel optical coherence tomography (POCT) system and a volume holographic imaging system (VHIS). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a coherent imaging technique, which shows great promise in biomedical applications. A POCT system is a novel technology that replaces mechanically transverse scanning in the lateral

Abstract:

Plenoptic imaging is an exciting research field since, by introducing a microlens array into the optical train of a traditional camera, directional information about incoming light rays is stored on the sensor. Whereas traditional cameras discard this information, plenoptic imaging takes advantage of this increase in angular resolution to provide a method of snapshot 3D capture. With a plenoptic dataset, the ability to extend depth of field and refocus digitally, post-acquisition, is of key benefit to bioluminescence tomography. Due to low light imaging conditions, large apertures are required

Abstract:

Magnetic resonance imaging is one of the most widely used diagnostic techniques in the clinic as it affords many of the attributes sought from a non-invasive imaging modality. The main limitation of MRI is its inherent insensitivity, and as a result only large-scale abnormalities can be detected from a scan. With an increasing demand for earlier cancer diagnosis there has been a move towards imaging the molecular biomarkers that are present from the beginning of the disease process.

Abstract:

Optical microscopy has long been an established tool in the biomedical sciences, being the preferred choice in the study of single cells and tissue sections. The realisation of the confocal laser scanning microscope in the 1980s led to major advances in the way optical microscopy is implemented, paving the way for the use of interference techniques such as 4Pi microscopy to increase the optical resolution, and for nonlinear microscopy techniques such as two-photon microscopy, which allows deeper penetration and the imaging of live specimens as a consequence of reduced photo-bleaching, and cohe

Plasmonic nanoparticles show potential for numerous different biomedical applications, including diagnostic applications such as targeted labelling and therapeutic applications such as drug delivery and therapeutic hyperthermia. In order to support the development of these applications, imaging techniques are required for imaging and characterising nanoparticles both in isolation and in the cellular environment. The work presented in this thesis relates to the use and development of two different optical techniques for imaging and measuring the localised surface plasmon resonance of plasmonic

Early detection of microorganisms in environmental and biomedical applications is critical for the effective response to potential pathogenic treats. Most traditional methods and instrumentation for the analysis of these samples are becoming obsolete due to the fact that they are time-consuming and have long response times. Modern solutions are limited to high-end centralized facilities and specialized trained personnel, given their high-cost and complexity. There is thus a clear need to develop and introduce low-cost, easy to use, high-performance devices capable of rapidly identifying and qu

This thesis focuses on the development of novel nanomaterials for biomedical imaging using both iron oxide nanoparticles and cadmium based quantum dots, and two different coating methods. The first approach involved a coating ligand consisting of the stealth molecule polyethylene glycol, and a bisphosphonate enabling strong binding to the nanoparticle surface. This polymer conjugate was chosen in order to reduce undesirable reticuloendothelial system uptake, and hence increase blood circulation times allowing for efficient delivery of particles to specific in vivo vascular targets.

Computed Tomography is one of the most important image modalities in medical imaging nowadays.

For remote imaging, a coherent fibre optic bundle was used which required techniques and protocols to be developed to minimise artefacts associated with dispersion and recover accurate lifetime estimates. Potentially gain switched pulsed laser diodes are better suited for the clinic than light sources used conventionally for FLIM endoscopy because they are more compact and lower in cost. By imaging ex vivo human tissue samples, it was demonstrated that gain-switched pulsed laser diodes
