Desarrollo y validación de una plataforma optofluídica ultrasensible para la detección especifíca y selectiva de mercadores tumorales en oncología 

    Ortega. M, María A. (Date of defense: 2015-11-11)

    Nowadays cancer is a devastating illness, so its early diagnosis could represent a powerful advantage in the struggle to eradicate it. The most recent technologies allowed the development of sensing platforms that led to ...

    From cells to tissues, microscopy to modeling: towards precise, data-driven photothermal therapy with gold nanorods 

    Morales Dalmau, Jordi (Date of defense: 2019-02-15)

    Suspensions of gold nanorods (GNRs) are emerging as potential drugs to address some of the limitations in traditional biomedical sensing,imaging and therapy. They are inorganic nanoparticles with good biocompatibility, ...

    Hybrid diffuse optics for monitoring of tissue hemodynamics with applications in oncology 

    Farzam, Parisa (Date of defense: 2014-10-14)

    Noninvasive measurement of hemodynamics at the microvascular level may have a great impact on oncology in clinics for diagnosis, therapy planning and monitoring, and, in preclinical studies. To this end, diffuse optics is ...

    Hybrid diffuse optics for translational oncology and nanobiophotonics: towards a theranostic approach for emerging cancer therapies 

    Mireles Núñez, Miguel Adrián (Date of defense: 2018-10-24)

    A pre-clinical mouse model of human clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) was employed as a method to study the prognostic and theranostic potential of two, non-invasive, deep tissue, diffuse optical techniques, namely ...
