Multi-photon laser Safety tests
The third week of July 2020 the safety tests for the Multi-photon tomography (MPT) part of the PICCOLO system took place at the CCMIJU in Caceres, to evaluate the phototoxicity of the laser light in the tissue. Twelve rabbits were used for the tests, operated on to expose the descending colon and put the probe […]

The first induced colonic hyperplasia model in rats for endoscopic applications
This research, in the framework of the Piccolo project, has successfully developed a preclinical model of Colonic Hyperplasia in the species “Rattus Norvegicus” that recreates important characteristics of human hyperplasia such as the generation of new cells in the colonic mucosa and tissue growth, as well as the corresponding angiogenesis. The creation of these growths […]
