Compound prism arrays are a powerful, yet underutilized, solution for producing high transmission and customized chromatic dispersion profiles over broad bandwidths, the quality of which is unobtainable with commercially available prisms or diffraction gratings. However, the computational complexity associated with designing these prism arrays presents a barrier to the widespread adoption of their use. Here we introduce customizable prism designer software that facilitates high-speed optimization of compound arrays guided by target specifications for chromatic dispersion linearity and detector geometry.

Article Synopsis
  • Infant hydrocephalus, primarily affecting the developing world, is difficult to treat due to limited access to neurosurgery, but the ETV/CPC procedure has proven effective and resource-efficient compared to traditional VPS placement.
  • The study will enroll 300 infants at CURE Children's Hospital of Uganda and assess their cerebral physiology and brain growth before and after surgery, focusing on factors like oxygen levels and blood flow.
  • This research aims to create evidence-based treatment guidelines by monitoring brain development and neurodevelopmental outcomes over two years, along with outlining the trial's protocol and data management strategies.

Live-subject microscopies, including microendoscopy and other related technologies, offer promise for basic biology research as well as the optical biopsy of disease in the clinic. However, cellular resolution generally comes with the trade-off of a microscopic field-of-view. Microimage mosaicking enables stitching many small scenes together to aid visualization, quantitative interpretation, and mapping of microscale features, for example, to guide surgical intervention.
