Microbubble driven multimodal imaging and theranostics for gliomas (THERAGLIO)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2018,
Microbubbles (MBs) are used as contrast agent in ultrasound (US) imaging for a variety of tumours while little has been done for glioblastomas, a rare cancer. Intraoperative Contrast-Enhanced US-imaging (CEUS) using lipidic MBs hold promises in increasing extent of resection of such tumors. Furthermore, MBs gained recently interest as a delivery system for drugs. We will develop a new generation o ...

Intelligent amputee sockets employing real time advanced photonic sensors for optimum fit and pressure relief through active controls (SMARTSOCKET)
Date du début: 1 juin 2010, Date de fin: 31 mai 2014,
SmartSOCKET aims at realizing an intelligent amputee socket with optimum fitting and pressure relief utilizing embedded fiber sensors for strain/shear measurement and countershear actuators for readjusting the pressure map distribution across the knee-socket interface. SmartSOCKET will be the first project addressing fiber sensing configurations in true rehabilitation and biomechanic applications, ...

Intelligent Adaptable Surface with Optical Fiber Sensing for Pressure-Tension Relief (IASiS)
Date du début: 10 nov. 2009, Date de fin: 9 janv. 2012,
IASiS addresses pressure ulcer incidence and treatment and aims to develop and demonstrate an Intelligent Adaptable Surface for serving as the skin/machine interface in therapy beds and wheelchair seating systems. This surface is envisaged to be capable of redistributing the pressure, strain and shear applied on the skin. A controller and an algorithm optimizes the load-time curve as pre-specified ...

Latin American Health Care Network (MedNet)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2008, Date de fin: 31 mai 2011,
Access to medical care is sometimes very difficult to be reached from people living in rural and underserved areas. This problem is very well known in rural areas in Latin America. Citizens have no access to health care. They have to travel hundred of kilometers to receive a medical diagnosis.Within the project, we will develop a medical network that addresses the problems of providing health care ...
