Light-induced cytotoxicity in cells utilizing an automated well plate illuminator

Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2023 Authors: Laura Vesala, Robert Perttilä, Elias Kokko, Johannes Kivelä, Lasse Orsila, Petteri Uusimaa    Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2023 Authors: Laura Vesala, Robert Perttilä, Elias Kokko, Johannes Kivelä, Lasse Orsila, Petteri Uusimaa   Delivering therapeutic drug molecules to the target site and releasing the cargo site-specifically is of major interest in biomedicine. To carry and release drugs to specific target tissues, different nanotechnology approaches have been utilized. These include light-sensitive liposomal carriers, which have been engineered to release cargo from their aqueous cores when illuminated by certain wavelengths of laser light. To study drug release parameters in vitro, Modulight Continue reading →

Ophthalmic laser platform utilizing AI to enhance treatment planning of liposomal drug release

Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2022 Authors: Eero Koivumäki, Laura Vesala, Jukka-Pekka Alanko, Timo Tanila, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corporation (Finland)    Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2022 Authors: Eero Koivumäki, Laura Vesala, Jukka-Pekka Alanko, Timo Tanila, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corporation (Finland)   Delivery of pharmaceuticals to the eye posterior poses a major challenge in ophthalmology. A promising drug delivery platform is indocyanine green (ICG) liposomes, which absorb near-infrared light resulting in a release of pharmaceutical molecules. The Modulight ophthalmic laser platform has been designed for treatments targeting the eye posterior and can also excite the absorption band of the liposomes. The laser connects with Modulight Cloud, enabling Continue reading →

Configurable multi-wavelength laser light engine for endoscopic fluorescence imaging

Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2022 Authors: Zoe Ylöniemi, Visa Kaivosoja, Lasse Orsila, Tero Vierimaa, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corporation (Finland)    Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2022 Authors: Zoe Ylöniemi, Visa Kaivosoja, Lasse Orsila, Tero Vierimaa, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corporation (Finland)   Using different fluorescent dyes for clinical applications need endoscopic illumination sources with multiple wavelengths. Fluorescent imaging with simultaneous white light overlay image benefit from laser light sources for fluorescence excitation and white light illumination to allow for easy spectral filtering on imaging side. Imaging of complementary fluorescent dyes adds requirements for the light source. Modulight ML7710 oncology laser platform was developed to fulfill the requirements Continue reading →
