The Structural and Functional Imaging and Dosimetry arm of the Core will provide organization and coordination of imaging tools
The photophysical monitoring and dosimetric imaging arm will provide logistical support to investigators via monitoring of fluorescence, phosphorescence, and model-based interpretation of these signals
The molecular imaging arm of the Core is an exciting feature which provides new tools for tracking prognostic markers of treatment efficacy to all projects
The technology transfer arm encompasses the standard institutional goals of patenting and translation of key technologies to relevant industries, with the goal of advancing PDT technologies in a responsible manner.
Core C has both research and service goals, with the overall theme of developing new and useful imaging and dosimetry approaches to help optimize PDT, for both experimental protocls as well as clinical trials. This Core is based on four major areas of dosimetry and imaging: (i) structural, (ii) photophysical, (iii) molecular, and (iv) the translation of new technologies within the Program as well as to other research groups and industry.
Core Directior: Brian W. Pogue, Ph.D.
