摘要:
An artifact for determining resolution of imaging based on electromagnetic radiation, mechanical waves, or both is presented. The artifact includes a substrate and layers on top of the substrate. The layers include organic material and are stacked on each other in a partially overlapping way so that an edge of a first one of the layers is arranged to intersect with an edge of a second one of the layers. The layers constitute a three-dimensional surface topography where a groove defined by the edges of the first and second ones of the layers is tapering towards a point of intersection between the edges. The resolution is a minimum width of the tapering groove which is revealed by the imaging so that a pre-determined criterion is fulfilled.

A method for calibrating electromagnetic radiation-based three-dimensional imaging includes: obtaining (501) a calibration imaging result at least partly on the basis of electromagnetic waves received from a calibration artifact, forming (502) calibration data on the basis of the calibration imaging result and a known thickness profile of the calibration artifact, and correcting (503), with the aid of the calibration data, an imaging result obtained at least partly on the basis of electromagnetic waves received from a sample to be imaged. The calibration artifact includes layers, for example Langmuir-Blodgett films, having pre-determined thicknesses and stacked on each other so as to achieve the pre-determined thickness profile of the calibration artifact. A three-dimensional imaging system configured to carry out the method.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the field of electrotherapy and measuring by means of electric currents for diagnostic purposes, and more particularly to an electrode arrangement for facilitating wound healing, a method for measuring wound healing and a wound dressing having an electrode arrangement. A wound dressing according to the present invention comprises at least two impedance reference electrodes, a frame like counter-electrode and stimulation electrodes in a form of an array; and a bioadhesive affinity layer surrounding the stimulation electrodes; said wound dressing being suited for applying on top of the wound so that the stimulation electrode array is on the wound area, and that the at least two impedance reference electrodes and the frame like counter-electrode are suited for placing in contact with the healthy skin surrounding the wound area; which electrodes, are suited for applying LIDC type electrical stimulation current to the wound area and for bioimpedance measurement. The wound dressing according to the present invention provide a continuous, non-invasive and objective solution for monitoring chronic wound healing without disturbing the delicate healing process.
