Build Better Biomedical Optical Technologies, Faster
Standardized and custom phantoms, quantitative targets, and expert services help teams reduce variability, validate performance, and accelerate clinical imaging, optical sensing, and wearable technologies.
Built by Biomedical Optics Experts.
Driven by a Mission to Improve Translation.
QUEL Imaging grew from a student-faculty team at Dartmouth’s Center for Imaging Medicine with a shared goal: make biomedical optical technologies easier to develop, characterize, compare, and translate.
We combine scientific expertise with practical engineering and manufacturing to create tools that improve reproducibility, reduce development risk, and help move promising imaging and sensing technologies from the lab toward real-world use.

Our Products In Action
Development of heterogenous multispectral optical prostate phantom
QUEL Imaging is a subcontractor on the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth team led by Kimberley Samkoe. Embedded with the development team, we characterized tissue and phantom optical properties and rapidly produced custom models, including:
✅ Solid phantoms with fluorescence matched to ICG and Trace Biosciences’ candidate fluorophores
✅ A multispectral prostate with neurovascular bundles—affectionately called the “rotisserie prostate” 🍗
✅ Simulations using digital twins
2nd Annual Mike Toth Center Symposium on Precision Image-Guided Surgery
Recently, the QUEL Imaging team attended the 2nd Annual Mike Toth Center Symposium on Precision Image-Guided Surgery at Mass. Eye and Ear and Mass General Brigham Starr Center. We got to see a sneak peak at demo using our products. Events like this are a reminder that progress in image-guided surgery depends on close collaboration between clinicians, imaging scientists, chemists, engineers, and industry.
Hands-on session at ESSO-ISFGS Course on Fluorescence-Guided Surgery
At the ESSO-ISFGS Course on Fluorescence-Guided Surgery in Leiden, Netherlands, QUEL Imaging had the opportunity to bring several of our fluorescent phantoms and showcase how they can be used to compare and better understand imaging system capabilities.
