Advancing the clinical application of Raman spectroscopic diagnosis of oesophageal pre-malignancies

Hutchings, J. (Cranfield University, 2009-01)

Raman spectroscopy is a technique that utilises inelastic scattering processes to provide a biochemical fingerprint that has been shown to successfully discriminate oesophageal pathologies. The aim of this study was to ...
The hydraulic lung

Prime, David (2004-10)

A Hydraulic Lung has been designed and constructed. The Hydraulic Lung can inhale through a Dry Powder Inhaler (DPI) with a pre-determined level of inspiratory effort, and the characteristics of the inhalation profile ...
The study of molecular markers for the progression of Barrett's Oesophagus to adenocarcinoma to identify markers that can be used as diagnostic tools.

Cadd, Verity Anne (Cranfield University, 2002-05)

Barrett's oesophagus is a complication of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease and is the single most important predisposing factor for the development of adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus. New molecular markers are needed ...
Towards objective endoscopic diagnosis of Barrett's associated early neoplasia using fibre-optic Raman Spectroscopy

Almond, Laurence Maximilian (Cranfield University, 2012-08)

This translational research evaluates a novel, custom-built Raman probe for potential application as an in vivo diagnostic tool in the oesophagus. Raman spectroscopy (RS) is a well established analytical technique which ...
