Friday, 8 January, 2021
Tower Optical Corporation is focused on a singular goal: to improve humanity’s quality of life. By leveraging light-based technologies and innovating along the way, we’re able to cater to the most demanding needs of industry experts in various fields all over the world. For over four decades, we’ve worked with some of the leading organizations and experts in the fields of aerospace, national security, optical imaging, laser technology, and biomedicine. As a full-service manufacturer, we’ve catered to the evolving needs of private organizations, university researchers, and government labs through innovative, using specialized optical devices.
Investigations of the brain have progressed from visually examining inoperative brains removed from experimental subjects, through EEG, F-MRI, and direct electrical stimulation of brains in living, conscious subjects. Each of those techniques offered improvements in spatial resolution. Recently, bio photonics has taken brain research much farther. It is now possible to observe nearly single brain cells and their neighbors optically, either stimulating those cells with light or passively observing their behaviors. The use of directed light inside brain tissue, even in the living conscious brain, has led to such techniques as functional spectroscopy, microscopic inspection of the surgical area, quantifying blood flow, and both stimulation and recording without electrical signals affecting the measurements.
Another important area in brain research is brain perfusion. This technique shows the amount of blood taken up in certain areas of your brain. The optical systems used to monitor the blood perfusion include prism, microprism, laser windows and optical filters. Tower optical has cooperated with many research institutes providing not only optical parts, but some feedback about the optical properties of the mentioned parts.
The BRAIN Initiative (Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neuroethologies) is public-private research collaboration. To see and probe the living brain at the cellular level requires precision micro-optics. Much research in the BRAIN Initiative was made possible through the contributions of Tower Optical’s micro-prisms and optical windows. Tower Optical is a premier supplier of precision micro-prisms to the medical research community. Tower can guarantee short delivery times and a steady supply of high quality, dependable, durable, and cost-effective micro-prisms and has been doing so for many years. By providing uniform, high quality, and expertly manufactured precision optics, we facilitated non-invasive and surgical procedures, as well as unparalleled imaging capabilities.
Tower Optical is proud to have facilitated the ground-breaking research of the The Brain Initiative. We are a premier supplier of a wide portfolio of precision optics including waveplates, windows, prisms, beam expanders, and more. Please reach out to Tower Optical so that we can assist in achieving your big ideas, whatever your industry or community.
