The laboratory conducts research based on optical methods for obtaining tomographic (3D) images of soft tissues and multilayer structures and for determining optical parameters and thickness from measured spectra. Potential partners and clients of the laboratory can be research groups that have similar research interest, for example in novel optical biomedical diagnostic, material thickness measurements, tomographic imaging, etc.
