Diffuse optical imaging is a medical imaging technique that is beginning to move from the
laboratory to the hospital. It is a natural extension of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) …

We review the current state-of-the-art of diffuse optical imaging, which is an emerging
technique for functional imaging of biological tissue. It involves generating images using …

Optical methods have been used to measure physiological variables for decades, as is
apparent from other chapters in this book. However, the use of diffuse optical light for …

Diffuse optical imaging is highly versatile and has a very broad range of applications in
biology and medicine. It covers diffuse optical tomography, fluorescence diffuse optical …

Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) is emerging as a viable new biomedical imaging modality.
Using near‐infrared (NIR) light, this technique probes absorption as well as scattering …

Diffuse optical techniques utilize light in the near infrared spectral range to measure tissue
physiology non-invasively. Based on these measurements, either on average or a three …

Visible light and near infrared light interact with biological tissue by absorption and
scattering. Diffuse optical imaging and spectroscopy reconstructs tissue physiologic …

Written by an authority involved in the field since its nascent stages, Diffuse Optical
Tomography: Principles and Applications is a long-awaited profile of a revolutionary imaging …

While some materials are opaque because they strongly absorb visible light, others, such as
foam, white paint, biological tissue and milk, are opaque because photons traveling within …

Near-infrared (NIR) optical tomography can provide estimates of the internal distribution of
optical absorption and transport scattering from boundary measurements of light …
