Multiwavelength phase unwrapping and aberration correction using depth filtered digital holography.

Optics letters

Jaedicke V, Goebel S, Koukourakis N, Gerhardt NC, Welp H, Hofmann MR.
PMID: 25121676
Opt Lett. 2014 Jul 15;39(14):4160-3. doi: 10.1364/OL.39.004160.

In this Letter, we present a new approach to processing data from a standard spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) system using depth filtered digital holography (DFDH). Intensity-based OCT processing has an axial resolution of the order of a...

Transmission of independent signals through a multimode fiber using digital optical phase conjugation.

Optics express

Czarske JW, Haufe D, Koukourakis N, Büttner L.
PMID: 27410664
Opt Express. 2016 Jun 27;24(13):15128-36. doi: 10.1364/OE.24.015128.

Multimode fibers are attractive for a variety of applications such as communication engineering and biophotonics. However, a major hurdle for the optical transmission through multimode fibers is the inherent mode mixing. Although an image transmission was successfully accomplished using...

Evidence based radiation therapy for locally advanced resectable and unresectable gastric cancer.

World journal of gastrointestinal oncology

Koukourakis GV.
PMID: 22007277
World J Gastrointest Oncol. 2011 Sep 15;3(9):131-6. doi: 10.4251/wjgo.v3.i9.131.

Despite the fact that gastric cancer is decreasing in incidence in the United States, it remains one of the most commonly diagnosed and most fatal cancers worldwide. In localised disease, surgery remains the cornerstone of treatment. Nevertheless, the low...

Metastatic Mucinous Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate with PSA Value of 8.6 ng/mL at 5-Year-Followup after Prostatectomy, Radiotherapy, and Androgen Deprivation.

Case reports in urology

Kalaitzis C, Koukourakis M, Giannakopoulos S, Giatromanolaki A, Sivridis E, Bantis A, Touloupidis S.
PMID: 24600526
Case Rep Urol. 2014;2014:218628. doi: 10.1155/2014/218628. Epub 2014 Jan 29.

Introduction. Mucinous adenocarcinoma of the prostate is a rare variant of prostate cancer. Its malignant potential and the clinical course of the affected patients remain, by and large, controversial. No data exist about the course of metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma...

Role of radiation therapy in neoadjuvant era in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer.

World journal of gastrointestinal oncology

Koukourakis GV.
PMID: 23443049
World J Gastrointest Oncol. 2012 Dec 15;4(12):230-7. doi: 10.4251/wjgo.v4.i12.230.

Surgery remains the primary determinant of cure in patients with localized rectal cancer, and total mesorectal excision is now widely accepted as standard of care. The widespread implementation of neoadjuvant short-course radiotherapy (RT) or long-course chemoradiotherapy (CRT) has reduced...

Thermogenic protein UCP1 and UCP3 expression in non-small cell lung cancer: relation with glycolysis and anaerobic metabolism.

Cancer biology & medicine

Giatromanolaki A, Balaska K, Kalamida D, Kakouratos C, Sivridis E, Koukourakis MI.
PMID: 29372106
Cancer Biol Med. 2017 Nov;14(4):396-404. doi: 10.20892/j.issn.2095-3941.2017.0089.

Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) is a proton transporter/channel residing on the inner mitochondrial membrane and is involved in cellular heat production. Using immunohistochemistry, we investigated the expression of UCP1 and UCP3 in a series of 98 patients with non-small...

Rapid computational cell-rotation around arbitrary axes in 3D with multi-core fiber.

Biomedical optics express

Sun J, Koukourakis N, Guck J, Czarske JW.
PMID: 34221669
Biomed Opt Express. 2021 May 17;12(6):3423-3437. doi: 10.1364/BOE.423035. eCollection 2021 Jun 01.

Optical trapping is a vital tool in biology, allowing precise optical manipulation of nanoparticles, micro-robots, and cells. Due to the low risk of photodamage and high trap stiffness, fiber-based dual-beam traps are widely used for optical manipulation of large...

Comparative radiobiological analysis and preliminary results of Ultra hypofractionated accelerated radiotherapy for low-risk prostate cancer patients.

Journal of B.U.ON. : official journal of the Balkan Union of Oncology

J BUON. 2021 May-Jun;26(3):956-963.

PURPOSE: Moderately accelerated hypofractionation (HypoAR) has been recently established as a standard radiotherapy scheme for low-risk prostate cancer. The application of ultra-hypofractionated regimens (ultra-HypoAR), with fraction size above 5 Gy, is also widely tested.METHODS: We applied Image Guided Radiation...
