Some examples of Avantes (Bio)Medical implementations:

• Angiology / Pharmacology – Monitoring oxygen saturation after the application of vaso-active pharmaceuticals.   This study detected changes in oxygen changes caused by Reynaud syndrome and microcirculation diseases in tissue.
• Dermatology/Tissue transplants – Detection of blood perfusion in grafted tissues; Identification of melanoma and other dermal abnormalities using non-invasive reflection
• Endocrinology  – Detection of Microangiopathy; Early detection of Endothelial dysfunction and ulceration.
• Cardiac surgery – Clinical devices integrating Avantes instrument to monitor oxygen consumption of the heart during and after bypass operations.
• Neurosurgery / Oncology – Quantification of brain tumor oxygen consumption before/after radiation or operations. Measurement of radiation therapy efficacy on breast mass reduction.
• Pediatric medicine – Clinical devices integrating Avantes low stray light spectrometers to monitor blood parameters critically ill newborns.
• Plastic surgery / Transplantation medicine – Monitoring vascularization of transplanted tissues and organs
• Otorhinolaryngology – Endoscopic characterization of throat tissues for abnormalities and cancer detection
• Trauma surgery –  Non-invasive characterization of burned or frozen tissues.
• European project: Cancer detection using miniature spectrometers and smart biopsy needles
• Avantes OEM Instruments for Biomedical Applications
• Biomedical customers benefit from Avantes commitment to quality as evidenced by our ISO 2001:2016 certification and a three-year warranty.  All Avantes instruments undergo 8-hour thermal testing to ensure stability and robustness and the company maintains 100% traceability on all subcomponent parts.
