1. Micromachined Microwave Sensors for Non-Invasive Skin Cancer Diagnostics
Abstract : Malignant melanoma is one of the cancers with the highest incident rates. It is also the most dangerous skin cancer type and an early diagnosis is crucial for the successful treatment of malignant melanoma patients. READ MORE

2. Non-invasive monitoring of low molecular weight biomarkers relevant to skin inflammation and cancer
Abstract : Development of skin inflammation and cancer in viable epidermis and dermis involve slow molecular weight (LMW) metabolites. We hypothesize that these LMW compounds can be collected on the surface of the skin and used for non-invasive diagnostics of skin disorders. READ MORE

3. Non-invasive imaging for improved cardiovascular diagnostics : Shear wave elastography, relative pressure estimation, and tomographic reconstruction
Abstract : Throughout the last century, medical imaging has come to revolutionise the way we diagnose disease, and is today an indispensable part of virtually any clinical practice. In cardiovascular care imaging is extensively utilised, and the development of novel techniques promises refined diagnostic abilities: ultrasound elastography allows for constitutive tissue assessment, 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables full-field flow mapping, and micro-Computed Tomography (CT) permits high-resolution imaging at pre-clinical level.

4. Non-Invasive Characterization of Liver Disease : By Multimodal Quantitative Magnetic Resonance
Abstract : There is a large and unmet need for diagnostic tool that can be used to characterize chronic liver diseases (CLD). In the earlier stages of CLD, much of the diagnostics involves performing biopsies, which are evaluated by a histopathologist for the presence of e.g. fat, iron, inflammation, and fibrosis. READ MORE

5. Biophysical aspects of the skin barrier : towards increased non-invasive extraction and optimized biomarker sampling
Abstract : The skin provides a link to the body’s health via its rich variety of high and low molecular weight biomarkers, reflecting both systemic diseases (e.g., cancer, diabetes) and local skin disorders (e.g. READ MORE
