Wearable Device for Lymphedema Diagnostics
Description
This project concerns development of a wearable device for fluorescence detection in near infrared (NIR) range. The device will be used for monitoring the clearance of NIR tracers from skin for early diagnostics of lymphedema in post-breast cancer patients. This project is a cooperation with ETH Zurich and the group of Prof. Michael Detmar.
