How Imaging Sensors are Benefitting Life Science Applications

Imaging sensors are used in life science applications as it helps to detect illness accurately.


FREMONT, CA: Innovations in the imaging sensor technologies are continuously creating more opportunities for observation, discovery, and image capture in the life science industry. The two primary principal sensors utilized in the life science visions are CMOS (complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor) sensors and CCD (charged coupled device).


Both the sensors have some distinctive sets of abilities and different price points. The selection of the sensor relies on various factors like cost, sensor capabilities, and component requirement. However, in recent times, the demand for CMOS sensors is high because of its higher frame rates, low noise, high resolutions, and greater sensitivity. This sensor is also available at a lower cost than the CCD. The significant difference among CCD and CMOS sensors is the process in which they can transfer the charge out of the pixel and into the imaging devices.


Vision Sensors for Life Sciences Applications


The imaging sensors are utilized in various types of applications in the life science industry.


Medical and Dental Radiology


High-resolution image capture is necessary for radiology. To accurately diagnose medical anomalies at an early stage, it is essential to detect minute details.


Therefore, CMOS sensors can considerably decrease treatment expenses, enhance patient recovery, and even see illness early.


Ophthalmology


The vision sensors are immensely used in ophthalmology applications but utilizing the new techniques and therapies. These techniques can help prevent and offer specialized treatment of conditions like retinal glaucoma, cataract, and retinal detachment. The vital imaging features in ophthalmology consist of sensitivity, long service life, consistency, superior image quality, and reproducibility. However, the sensors' necessary components to appropriately diagnose and treat eye conditions are not limited to these few.


Radiotherapy and Fluorescence Applications


The low light imaging is necessary for identifying metastatic cancer cell for understanding its possibility of spreading in the body. The state-of-the-art CMOS sensor technology helps the caregivers witness or measure the tumor cell's potential by identifying various signaling mechanisms related to metastasis. It can be done with the help of fluorescence. Therefore, the fluorescence microscopy helps to light up the tumor cells that have gained high metastatic during chemotherapy and keep the cell in the darkness sensitive to chemotherapy or have less potential.
