Diffuse Optical Tomography (DOT) is rapidly evolving from a static laboratory technique into a highly practical, non-invasive clinical tool. We are pleased to see the Gowerlabs LUMO system featured prominently in the piece as a leading example of HD-DOT technology.

A three-year study involving high risk infants, Fast UltraSound Imaging with Optics in the Newborn (fUSiON), aims for the first time to combine functional ultrasound with high density DOT to obtain whole brain activity measurements at the cot-side.

Researchers at the Rosie Maternity Hospital in Cambridge are using LUMO in groundbreaking research that could speed up diagnosis and care for children with conditions such as cerebral palsy, epilepsy and learning difficulties.

The Gowerlabs NTS system is being used in pioneering longitudinal studies at the University of Bristol, investigating how and when young children develop abilities that enable them to focus and learn.

Groundbreaking research using LUMO to image the entire infant brain was featured on PBS NewsHour. Watch the full clip on their YouTube channel.

A whole head LUMO was used in groundbreaking infant research by Liam Collins-Jones and colleagues, advancing scientists understanding of social development.

Researchers at UCL used a whole-head infant LUMO system to map neural activity across the entire cortex, marking the first time that wearable technology has captured differences in activity across such a wide area of the brain in babies.
