Advanced multimodal laser imaging tool for urothelial carcinoma diagnosis (AMPLITUDE)

摘要： The paper presents an overview and concept of the European Union Horizon 2020 project “AMPLITUDE - Advanced Multimodal Photonics Laser Imaging Tool for Urothelial Diagnosis in Endoscopy”. The project aims at the development of a novel label-free, multi-modal imaging tool for urothelial cancer diagnosis and therapy monitoring based on ultrafast fiber laser operating in the 3rd biological window with frequency doubling and additional 785 nm CW laser for Raman spectroscopy. The tool corresponds to clinical needs for better diagnosis of the pathohistological staging of tumours and in-vivo endoscopic assessment of depth of lesion invasiveness.
