Project: Optical Coherence Tomography to revolutionize bladder cancer imaging and diagnostics

Acronym OCT-DETECTOR (Reference Number: 115301)
Duration 01/10/2021 - 01/10/2024
Project Topic The consortium will deliver a novel, real-time imaging tool to provide superior bladder cancer (BC) diagnosis, which will ultimately improve the chance of BC survival. The product, an Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) catheter, will decrease the chance of misdiagnosis and unnecessary painful surgeries for BC patients and can easily be integrated into the current clinical workflow. In this project, we will deliver and validate the OCT catheter and perform a first-in-human feasibility study.
