Medical applications

The main reasons to work with Fibre Optic FBG technology instead of conventional methods in medical applications are that FBG’s and fibres are very robust, easy to clean and flexible. By having multiple sensors per fibre (with a core of 125 ìm) you can create a very compact network of sensors. The fibres can survive in harsh environments such as chemical substances and high temperatures. Our sensors and systems are ideal for accurate measurements of forces, pressure and temperature for minimal invasive / non-invasive surgery.
