Health monitoring via skin spectroscopy

Dear Sir or Madam,

In a collaboration between Lasor Sensors Labs and the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut, the innovative Raman sensor system was developed, which enables non-invasive methods for health monitoring. Initiated by Dr. Bernd Sumpf and his team, it uses the measurement of carotenoid concentration in the skin to open up new diagnostic methods. In our interview with him, we shed light on how this technology is used in chemotherapy monitoring and nutritional health monitoring.

The Raman sensor system opens new monitoring possibilities by precisely measuring the concentration of carotenoids in the skin - a potential indicator of health. This technology offers a non-invasive insight into dietary habits and health status, with the potential to monitor the effectiveness of chemotherapies.

The potential of nasal cartilage in knee joint treatment

News

LAB & DIAGNOSTICS

At the University Hospital Wuerzburg, a promising new treatment for knee joint defects involves the use of nasal cartilage, and it's edging closer to approval with significant EU funding. The new method is using autologous cartilage from the nasal septum, an approach that may seem as enchanting as the term "ENCANTO" implies.
