Thermal Modeling and Simulation for Optical Illumination to Extract Cancer Cells from Human Tissue Samples
Published in Frontiers in optics/Laser Science, 2019
Expression microdissection (xMD) allows extraction of target cancer cells from human tissue samples, to reduce misdiagnoses caused by non-target cell contamination. A thermal model and simulations are presented to assess temperature distribution in the xMD process.
