The only way to get thermal images of living organisms without perturbing them is to use
luminescent probes with temperature-dependent spectral properties. The acquisition of such …

A general survey is provided on the capability of Monte Carlo (MC) modeling in tissue optics
while paying special attention to the recent progress in the development of methods for …

Optical imaging relies on the ability to illuminate an object, collect and analyse the light it
scatters or transmits. Propagation through complex media such as biological tissues was so …

This article reviews the past and current statuses of time-domain near-infrared spectroscopy
(TD-NIRS) and imaging. Although time-domain technology is not yet widely employed due to …

We introduce a novel and efficient method to provide solutions to inverse photon migration
problems in heterogeneous turbid media. The method extracts derivative information from a …

This paper reviews the use of Monte Carlo (MC) methods in optical canopy reflectance
modelling. Their utility, and, more specifically, MC ray tracing for the numerical simulation of …

Real-time investigation of cerebral blood flow (CBF), and oxy-and deoxyhemoglobin
concentration (HbO, HbR) dynamics has been difficult until recently due to limited spatial …

The technological advancements made in optics and semiconductors (eg, cameras and
laser diodes) working with infrared have brought interest in optical bioimaging back to the …

The nEUROPt protocol is one of two new protocols developed within the European project
nEUROPt to characterize the performances of time-domain systems for optical imaging of …

Perturbation Monte Carlo (pMC) has been previously proposed to rapidly recompute optical
measurements when small perturbations of optical properties are considered, but it was …
