Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2023 Authors: Jukka-Pekka Alanko, Eero Koivumäki, Laura Vesala, Johannes Kivelä, Zoe Ylöniemi, Petteri Uusimaa, Ossi Kaikkonen, Teemu Turunen, Jaakko Nieminen, Jani Tirronen    Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2023 Authors: Jukka-Pekka Alanko, Eero Koivumäki, Laura Vesala, Johannes Kivelä, Zoe Ylöniemi, Petteri Uusimaa, Ossi Kaikkonen, Teemu Turunen, Jaakko Nieminen, Jani Tirronen   In the field of ophthalmic treatments, subthreshold laser therapy (SLT) has shown promise in addressing retinal diseases like diabetic macular edema (DME) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). However, the precise control of therapeutic temperatures is challenging due to variations in individual eye characteristics. Modulight and Maculaser have addressed this issue with their innovative ML6710i device. This device utilizes a combination of laser beams to achieve precise thermal Continue reading →

Novel ophthalmic PDT laser platform to target oncology and various other retinal indications

Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2023 Authors: Laura Vesala, Eero Koivumäki, Jukka-Pekka Alanko, Timo Tanila, Ivan Baldin, Zoe Ylöniemi, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corp.    Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2023 Authors: Laura Vesala, Eero Koivumäki, Jukka-Pekka Alanko, Timo Tanila, Ivan Baldin, Zoe Ylöniemi, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corp.   Laser systems, in ophthalmic applications, are utilized in the treatment of various ophthalmic diseases such as in ocular oncology and age-related macular degeneration through photochemical mechanism of photodynamic therapy. In addition, these lasers can be used to activate drug delivery systems in the retina to provide targeted drug therapy. PDT is a form of a combination treatment which utilizes light energy to Continue reading →

Ophthalmic laser platform utilizing AI to enhance treatment planning of liposomal drug release

Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2022 Authors: Eero Koivumäki, Laura Vesala, Jukka-Pekka Alanko, Timo Tanila, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corporation (Finland)    Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2022 Authors: Eero Koivumäki, Laura Vesala, Jukka-Pekka Alanko, Timo Tanila, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corporation (Finland)   Delivery of pharmaceuticals to the eye posterior poses a major challenge in ophthalmology. A promising drug delivery platform is indocyanine green (ICG) liposomes, which absorb near-infrared light resulting in a release of pharmaceutical molecules. The Modulight ophthalmic laser platform has been designed for treatments targeting the eye posterior and can also excite the absorption band of the liposomes. The laser connects with Modulight Cloud, enabling Continue reading →
