On 25 May 2023, researcher from the Technical University of Munich published their next WINTHER peer-reviewed paper in Photoacoustics. In the paper, led by Dr. Teresa Nau, the researchers perform a repeatability study using Raster-Scan Optoacoustic Mesoscopy to measure mean loop length (MLL) and mean plexus width (MPW) of microvessels on patients with eczema. It was shown that RSOM can accurately and precisely measure these lesional or inflammation biomarkers across multiple measurements to a degree that is more objective than the current clinical standards, SCORAD and EASI indices.
