tissue optics and microcirculation imaging |
|
Welcome to the TOMI website
Created as a core unit of the National Biophotonics and Imaging Platform Ireland (
NBIPI); the mission of the TOMI laboratory is to promote better healthcare through research and advancements of biophotonics technology. Our aim is to develop inexpensive, point-of-care tools which will reduce the incidence and mortality of diseases of the microcirculation and cancer via early detection.
We optimise optical methods through our numerous research and medical collaborations both at home and around the world. For further details of the individual projects, please refer to the staff and student web pages or visit our group publications page. The content aims to introduce you to our group, and the work carried out by Professor Martin J. Leahy's group, bringing you the most up to date information about our activities and findings. Please feel free to submit any comments about our site, or work - we welcome all input.
