Biomedical Optics


Our research is dedicated to revolutionizing breast cancer detection through non-invasive means, utilizing non-ionizing radiation. Unlike conventional methods that rely on radiation, such as mammograms, CT scans, and PET scans, our innovative approach harnesses the power of optics, quantum technologies, and artificial intelligence for precise and accurate cancer detection. This pioneering method, funded by the FET (Future and Emerging Technologies) European project "Cancer Scan" from 2019 to 2023, leverages light to detect breast cancer, marking a significant advancement in medical technology.
