Overview

Héctor is a physicist with Biomedical Optics and Near Infrared Spectroscopy as main backgrounds. He spent the last few years modeling photon migration in tissue, both analytically and with numerical simulations, specially focusing on how tissue heterogeneity affects light propagation. He’s also skilled in experimental techniques involving diffuse optical imaging and single photon counting. Now he is devoted to making use of all this to model and measure fluorescence, particularly by means of indocyanine green and Protoporphyrin IX, towards applications in fields such as Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging and Fluorescence-Guided Surgery.
