Boston Applied Technologies,
Inc. (BATi) is developing an innovative visible-IR, high speed full
polarization imaging technology based on high performance electro-optic
materials and novel control algorithm. This major breakthrough in cell
and tissue imaging and diagnostics enables scientists and engineers
to enhance the cell boundary without stain; to improve the cell contrast;
to improve the classification accuracy (cancerous tissue); and to differentiate
false positive cells from true positive cells. In addition, the technology
offers real-time and on-the-spot analysis and is easy-to-use. This technology
also provides a cost effective way to modify an optical microscope into
an advanced full polarization imaging system, with BATi's compact add-on
components/modules.
