Research
One of the important issues in medicine that attracts my interest is diabetes Mellitus disease. Diabetes Mellitus is one of the major spread diseases around the world. It is the fourth cause of death by disease around the world. From the most important issues in dealing with such disease is the continuous and accurate monitoring of glucose level change to be aware of the disease state. The motivation of this work is to offer an enhancement step of early detection of the syndromes of diabetes disease which is the change of the rate of glucose concentration, which directs our efforts to use the laser as an optical source and as a good tool for measuring optical properties of tissues because of its special characteristics of high coherency and its avoidance of the ionization effects of the other imaging systems like X-ray. An optical system is setup, interfaced with the computer, applying a developed algorithm to contribute in enhancing the resolution power of detection of the glucose concentration level through a system of tissue optical properties measurement. In addition to the start of an experiment for pattern recognition of two different materials doped in one solution is also accomplished by this work.
In the current state research is concerning with the design and implementation of Laser Imaging System for target identification. Phase one is the detailed study of the target modeling and simulation from all aspects of concern, accurate selection of optical imaging system. Experimental work commences after system realization. The second phase is related to the data analysis through algorithm development (Digital Signal Processing, Image processing, and Pattern recognition) of the experimental output data. The contribution of this work is to achieve development and enhancement of non-invasive imaging technique.
