Kuler. Rosacea News: Measuring Erythema (red face) after IPL. This is the one of the first published papers to objectively measure how IPL performs as a treatment for rosacea. The paper’s conclusion makes for encouraging reading; “As demonstrated by truly objective and quantitative means, intense pulsed light is effective for reducing rosacea-associated blood flow, telangiectasia, and erythema.”
Objective and Quantitative Improvement of Rosacea-Associated Erythema After Intense Pulsed Light Treatment. Mark K.A.; Sparacio R.M.; Voigt A.; Marenus K.; Sarnoff D.S., Dermatologic Surgery, Volume 29, Number 6, June 2003, pp. 600-604(5) Abstract: Despite the widespread and quite successful use of various lasers and light sources to treat facial erythema, the literature contains little, if any, objective and quantitative improvement. In addition, very few studies specifically address rosacea-associated erythema. Objective: To assess quantitatively the degree of improvement in patients with rosacea after intense pulsed light treatment.

Mar 12, 2007 19:00Takuya Otani, Nikkei Electronics Tanita Co., Ltd. launched the Monitoring Your Health (MYH) service that supports users to manage personal health information at home on March 8, 2007. Members can use a dedicated body composition monitor and a pedometer equipped with a communication function as well as a special key named "Relay Key" used for the reception of information transmitted from these measuring devices at a monthly fee of ¥1,200. The Relay Key is a USB memory that can be directly connected to a personal computer. The information stored in the Key is transmitted to the dedicated online database software called "Karada-karute (Body-chart/record)" so that users can check the transition in their personal health data every day. Infrared communication is utilized for the transmission of information between the body composition monitor and pedometer, and the Relay Key.
A blood pressure meter is also available as a measuring device option. Spectroscopy - Biomedical Research Projects. Light scattering from cancerous cells and tissues Motivation In this project we focus on measuring light scattering from cells and tissues to develop new diagnostic parameters for early cancer detection. Early cancer is associated with the changes in tissue organization at cellular level, such as changes in inter-cellular organization, cellular shape and density, cell nuclei size, cell nuclei density and intra-nuclear structure and other changes on a small scale not seen under conventional light microscopy [1].
Understanding of sub-cellular origins of light scattering in cells is an important step in developing new diagnostic parameters. We are studying scattering in multi-cell objects, such as cell suspensions (HeLa, HT29, T84), cell monolayers (HeLa, HT29, T84) and epithelial tissue cancer model (pre-cancer in the rat esophagus). From the scattering point of view biological cells are weakly scattering with m<1.1. Measurements of Light Scattering in Cells References 1. 2. 4. 5. Pharmanex Biophotonic Scanner.

The PGS is a glucose sensor providing people with diabetes with continuous monitoring of their blood glucose trends and variations.
PGS helps prevent hypoglycaemia and provide additional guidance for better glucose self-management. Simply wear the PGS armband as a garment and get warned when it detects a significant drop of your glucose level at any time of the day or night. Use your Smartphone to get aware of your glucose level trending up or down. Features Low Trend Alerts High Trend alerts Trend display on demand Glucose variability % over configurable period of time Configurable beep/vibrate Remote alarm via connected Smartphone Smartphone application for display and control How it Works? The PGS features a totally non-invasive glucose sensor with continuous alarm monitoring. Benefits Proactive diabetes management Good glucose control is a key factor in reducing the risk of the long-term complications of diabetes. Clinical Diabetes Technology Meetings.
