UT Arlington bioengineer to use hybrid imaging system to see deep tissue
Tool would use light, sound to give more accurate pictureA UT Arlington bioengineer has been awarded a $407,163 National Science Foundation Early Career Development grant to use light and sound to produce an accurate image of a patient’s deep tissue. Baohong Yuan, an assistant professor of bioengineering at The University of Texas at Arlington, said his process overcomes the challenge of getting accurate images in deep tissue. Currently, to analyze tissue more than a centimeter beneath the skin, physicians may select a noninvasive imaging method or
