This project explores a novel method for non-invasive detection of tissue oxygen levels by analyzing photons emitted from positronium decays. It aims to determine if the entanglement of these photons can indicate hypoxia, potentially leading to advancements in medical imaging techniques.
A method for non-invasive assessment of hypoxia (deficit of oxygen in tissue) is keenly awaited in medicine.
This project is motivated by the exciting question whether it is possible to assess the concentration of oxygen in the tissue by detecting photons from positronium decays inside cells.
Positronium (a bound state of an electron and positron) is copiously produced in the human body during positron emission tomography.
Its properties in tissue depend on the size of the intramolecular voids a…
