معرفی
Rolf Saager is an Associate Professor at Linköping University, affiliated with the Department of Biomedical Engineering (IMT) and the Wallenberg Centre for Molecular Medicine at LiU (WCMM). His research focuses on developing quantitative, non-invasive optical imaging and spectroscopy tools for clinical applications in dermatology and wound healing.
His primary research interests lie in biomedical optics, particularly Spatial Frequency Domain Imaging (SFDI), light transport modeling, and hyperspectral imaging. He develops advanced instrumentation that combines molecular sensitivity with depth selectivity, leveraging technologies such as snap-shot hyperspectral imagers and compressive sensing for clinical translation.
The recent publications highlight a strong trend in non-invasive diagnostics, photodynamic and photothermal therapies, and quantitative monitoring of tissue changes during wound healing. His work integrates physics, engineering, and clinical medicine to improve sensitivity and specificity in disease detection and treatment response.
He is actively involved in interdisciplinary collaborations, particularly through the Wallenberg Centre for Molecular Medicine, aiming to bridge technology development with clinical deployment. His research supports the development of novel therapeutic platforms and accelerates drug discovery in regenerative medicine.
Rolf Saager contributes to advancing clinical tools for triage and emergency care, as seen in projects involving hyperspectral imaging for patient assessment. His work has implications for emergency medicine, oncology, and dermatology.
