The OPARA service was recently upgraded to a new technical platform. You are visiting the outdated OPARA website. Please use https://opara.zih.tu-dresden.de/ for new data submissions. Previously stored data will be migrated in near future and then the old version of OPARA will finally be shut down. Existing DOIs for data publications remain valid.

Optical Imaging for Caries Detection (OptiCarD)

The aim of this project is to visualize carious lesions with optical imaging techniques in order to develop caries diagnostic tools for the dental examination in vivo.

This project is open access and publicly accessible.
