Fast Gated Superconducting Nanowire Camera For Multi-Functional Optical Tomograph
More Accurate And Efficient Deep Body Functional Imagingthe Visualisation Of Internal Organs And Structures, As Well As The Monitoring Of Their Functions, Is Important For The Diagnosis And Treatment Of Various Medical Conditions Like Cancer And Cardiovascular Disease. Currently, Ultrasound, X-Rays, Positron Emission Tomography, And Mri Are Used For Monitoring Organs And Deep Body Imaging, But They Have Their Limitations. The Eu-Funded Fastmot Project Aims To Revolutionise The Way Deep Body Functional Imaging Is Done. It Proposes A Light Sensing Solution, An Ultra-Fast And Highly Efficient Single-Photon Sensor Based On Superconducting Nanowire Detectors. By Combining Optical Gating And Charge Coupling, It Will Scale Up To 10 000 Pixels And Millimetre Diameter To Enable Multifunctional Deep Body Imaging With Diffuse Optics.
