Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an anticancer combination therapy, which requires a
photosensitiser, which tends to accumulate preferentially in the tumour, and light. Historically …

A number of noninvasive approaches have been developed over the years to provide
objective evaluation of the skin both in health and in disease. The advent of computers, as …

Medical laser applications require knowledge about the optical properties of target tissue. In
this study, the optical properties of selected native and coagulated human brain structures …

Multiphoton microscopy relies on nonlinear light–matter interactions to provide contrast and
optical sectioning capability for high-resolution imaging. Most multiphoton microscopy …

During the development of neoplasia, epithelial tissues undergo biochemical and structural
changes that can manifest in tissue fluorescence. There have been several reports on …

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to assess the potential of 3 spectroscopic
techniques (intrinsic fluorescence, diffuse reflectance, and light scattering) individually and …

Objectives Because early detection and preoperative assessment of laryngeal cancer and
its precursor lesions are essential for curative and function‐preserving surgical treatment …

A Monte Carlo model developed to simulate time-resolved fluorescence propagation in a
semi-infinite turbid medium was validated against previously reported theoretical and …

We introduce new realistic three-dimensional tissue phantoms which can help to understand
the optical properties of human epithelium as well as the optical signatures associated with …

We present the design and construction of a fiber optic probe for elastic light scattering
spectroscopy in vivo with polarized excitation and polarization sensitive detection. The …
