Germany ZIM - HSI Fundus Imaging - Adaptation of hyperspectral cameras for diagnostic fundus imaging for the early detection of Alzheimer's disease
FY 2023-24 · 2023-06-01
Summary
As part of the international consortium project “Adaptation of hyperspectral cameras for diagnostic fundus imaging for the early detection of Alzheimer's disease", this project will focus on co-development of a hyperspectral camera that leverages one of Cubert's existing technologies and adapted to be used in combination of fundus cameras and RetiSpec's AI diagnostic tools. The resulting product can provide access to a uniform, robust and quantitative method for the early detection of Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases and will have the potential to be manufactured and commercialized on a large scale.

Description (French)
Dans le cadre du projet de consortium international «Adaptation des caméras hyperspectrales pour l’imagerie diagnostique du fond d’œil pour la détection précoce de la maladie d’Alzheimer», ce projet se concentrera sur le codéveloppement d’une caméra hyperspectrale qui exploite l’une des technologies existantes de Cubert et qui est adaptée pour être utilisée en combinaison avec les caméras du fond d’œil et les outils de diagnostic de l’IA de RetiSpec. Le produit résultant peut donner accès à une méthode uniforme, robuste et quantitative pour la détection précoce de la maladie d’Alzheimer et d’autres maladies neurodégénératives et aura le potentiel d’être fabriqué et commercialisé à grande échelle.
