Medical
Optotune’s unique light controlling components enable a broad range of medical applications:
Optical coherence tomography
Fluorescent imaging
Endoscopy
Raman spectroscopy
Intra-oral scanners
Laser skin treatment
Optotune’s components are used for a wide range of medical applications
Optical coherence tomography
Our Dual axis voice coil mirror (VCM) with position feedback allows for a new generation of compact optical coherence tomography (OCT) systems. A key advantage is the single rotation point close to the mirror surface. This allows for example to bring the mirror close to the eye and to scan a larger section of the retina.

Fluorescent imaging
Fluorescent imaging is a widely applied tool in research and in the biotech industry. It relies on narrow-band laser excitation of fluorescent markers. Optotune’s laser speckle reducers help to homogenize and de-speckle the excitation light, which leads to a more reliable detection.

Endoscopy
Optotune’s liquid lens technology can be scaled down to fit into the tip of an endoscope and thus allowing for fast auto-focusing. Please contact us with your challenging requirements. Alternatively, one of our standard tunable lenses can be integrated into the C-mount camera adapter in order to carry out remote-focusing through the relay system..

Intraoral scanners
The dental CAD/CAM market grows rapidly. Dental cameras/intra-oral scanners are at the heart of the paradigm change from traditional to digital workflow. Optotune’s laser speckle reducers and focus tunable lenses allow for more accurate and faster 3D scanning.
LSR’s improve scan quality for 3d dental scanners
Raman spectroscopy
Raman scattering is a growing market triggered by authentication and counterfeit detection, incoming quality control and airport/homeland security. Raman scattering is an inefficient process and therefore requires high-NA objectives that collect as many photons as possible. Those objectives result in low depth of field. Placing a tunable lens in the optical path allows to average the Raman signal over different depths and to adjust variations in working distance in case of handheld devices.
