This topic is absolutely perfect for a submission. 2014 OPS Scientific Paper Session in Chicago. Never too early to start writing it up and submitting. bob From: <Stuart>, "<B.

Pretty cool. I found another interesting article about a model eye for OCT or as they call it a "phantom tissue." It can be used for training, calibration, device certification and evaluation of various OCT models. http://www.bioopticsworld.com/articles/print/volume-6/issue-6/features/optical-coherence-tomography-tissue-phantoms-a-physical-eye-model-for-oct.html Tim Steffens, CRA Director of Ophthalmic Imaging University of Michigan Kellogg Eye Center 1000 Wall Street Ann Arbor, MI P: 734-936-2283 tjsteffe@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:tjsteffe@xxxxxxxxx> From: Sandor Ferenczy <sandorferenczy@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:sandorferenczy@xxxxxxxxx>> Reply-To: "optimal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:optimal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>" <optimal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:optimal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>> Date: Wednesday, November 20, 2013 6:57 PM To: "optimal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:optimal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>" <optimal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:optimal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>> Subject: [optimal] Re: No more infiltrations.... There are a few different devices out like that. This one is head-held and portable: http://www.bioopticsworld.com/articles/print/volume-6/issue-6/features/biomedical-device-design-development-borrowed-components-for-cost-effective-imaging-devices.html i think most of them work on NIR imaging. It would be interesting to see the success/failures and what criteria is linked to them (skin tone, subcutaneous fat, ischemia, etc) -sandor On Wed, Nov 20, 2013 at 4:20 PM, Anton Drew <anton.drew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:anton.drew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>> wrote: We could have done with a pair of those over the past week, we have had a run of obese diabetics with "a lot of padding", women with compromised veins from chemo, old people with highly mobile tiny veins, and one extravasation.
