Evgeny Zherebtsov presented the report «Novel wearable VCSEL-based sensors for multipoint measurements of blood perfusion» (E. Zherebtsov, E. Zharkikh, I. Kozlov, A. Zherebtsova, Y. Loktionova, N. Chichkov, I. Rafailov, V. Sidorov, S. Sokolovski, A. Dunaev, E. Rafailov) in section Speckle Technologies II. Victor Dremin presented a report «Optical fine-needle aspiration biopsy of abdominal organs» (V. Dremin, E. Zherebtsov, E. Potapova, A. Mamoshin, A. Alyanov, A. Dunaev) in section Functional Imaging and Spectroscopy I. The reports presented the results of work on 2 projects supported by the Russian Science Foundation.

 

     

 

The presented studies were the results of close cooperation with leading medical institutions of the region (Orel Regional Clinical Hospital), with industrial partner from Russia (LAZMA, Ltd., Moscow) and with foreign research and development centers - Aston University (Birmingham, United Kingdom) and University of Oulu (Oulu, Finland). The interest of colleagues towards presented works was shown and the possibilities for further joint research were discussed.
