Abstract: An aspect relates to a placement device for placement in a medium, including: an elongated optical transmission guide to which a photoacoustic transducer is attached to, wherein the photoacoustic transducer may include a first surface facing away from the second end of the elongated optical transmission guide. The photoacoustic transducer may include a 3-Dimensional shape configured to produce an acoustic signal upon absorption of electromagnetic energy received from the elongated optical transmission guide, and an emission profile of the acoustic signal is based on the 3-Dimensional shape, when the photoacoustic transducer is immersed in homogeneous medium. The placement device may be integral to a medical or veterinary device. An aspect relates to a placement tracking system including the placement device and an ultrasound detector. An aspect relates to a method for tracking a portion of a placement device in a medium using the system.

Abstract: Method for measuring respiratory vibration on a human or animal skin, including emitting an emission light at a first position on the skin and receiving a diffused light from the emission light at a second position on the skin; storing a vibration signal including a light intensity of the diffused light received over time; wherein the vibration signal corresponds to a mechanical vibration of the skin, and extracting a respiratory parameter from the vibration signal. In particular, at least one of the first position and the second position is in proximity to or at a trachea, a neck or a chest. The system for carrying out the method includes an emitter, a receiver, a circuit, and a processing unit. A set of a sensor module and a skin adhesive patch is also provided.

Abstract: Provided is an optical probe, and a Raman spectroscopy system using such, including excitation and detection optics coupled to a sampling optics via a beam splitter, in confocal arrangement with a sample focal plane of the sampling optics. The detection optics is arranged to receive Raman signal from the sample focal plane and direct it onto a tip of a detection optical fiber. The optical probe may further include a positioning device mechanically coupled to the sampling optics and configured to control a position of the sample focal plane. In the Raman spectroscopy system a light source is coupled to the excitation optics via an excitation optical fiber, and a spectrometer is coupled to a detection optics via a detection optical fiber. Provided is further a method for measuring Raman signal depth profile in a sample, wherein sample's Raman spectra is measured and stored at different focal plane positions.
