GALAHAD newsletter #6

The sixth and final GALAHAD newsletter is now available, which covers the following topics:-Summary of the project results-Automated algorithm development at UPV-Advances in grating production at Ibsen Photonics-1 µm axial resolution characterisation by DTU-Application of the two GALAHAD systems-Project workshop

GALAHAD system video online

A short (2 min) video showing the GALAHAD system in operation with a human patient is available from the website results page (https://galahad-project.eu/results). The axial resolution of this polarisation sensitive OCT system is c. 1 micron. There will be a live demonstration of the system at the final project workshop in Edinburgh on 08-Jan-2020 (https://galahad-project.eu/events/galahad-workshop).… Read More »
