Measuring oxygen inside active cells
To determine organ health physicians traditionally measure oxygen content in the blood. However, this says nothing about how oxygen is absorbed and used in the organ’s tissue cells. Through a new photonics based sensor technology, oxygen can now be directly measured inside tissue cells. Continue reading “Measuring oxygen inside active cells”
