Optical methods and systems in medical technology

Optical systems and manufacturing processes, optical design and simulation, optical metrology

Profile of specialization

Optical procedures have an increasingly important role in modern medical technology. The use of light enables largely contactless and painless diagnosis and a wide range of analysis options down to the molecular level.

On the one hand, this specialization offers a broad overview of optical procedures and devices in medical technology. On the other hand, theoretical and practical methods for the development of optical systems are taught.
