Driven by the need for earlier disease detection, real-time surgical guidance, and minimally invasive procedures, optical imaging and visualization technologies are transforming modern medicine. Powered by photonics, these non-ionizing technologies enable clinicians to visualize tissue structures and functions with high resolution, sensitivity, and real-time feedback, while avoiding the risks associated with ionizing radiation. From diagnostic applications to intraoperative surgical guidance, optical imaging is reshaping both diagnostics and interventions across oncology, cardiovascular, neurological, infectious, and other diseases.
This industry-oriented event will highlight advances in laser-based diagnostics, endoscopy, surgical visualization, hyperspectral imaging, photoacoustic imaging, fluorescence imaging (including UV fluorescence), multiphoton microscopy, optical coherence tomography (OCT), spectroscopic imaging, and emerging ultraviolet (UV)-enabled imaging modalities. The integration of artificial intelligence and data analytics further enhances the clinical utility of these imaging modalities, enabling faster, more precise decision-making.
By bringing together medical end-users, clinicians, surgeons, hospitals, technology developers, and photonics suppliers, this summit will explore the full potential of photonics-enabled medical imaging and surgical visualization across the continuum of care.
