Colon samples with both healthy and cancerous regions have been imaged in diffuse light
and backscattering geometry by using a Mueller imaging polarimeter. The tumoral parts at …

We present a method to determine chromophore concentrations, blood saturation, and
epidermal thickness of human skin from diffuse reflectance spectra. Human skin was …

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) was used to determine optical properties of pelleted
human fibroblasts in which necrosis or apoptosis had been induced. We analysed the OCT …

Sinusoidally structured illumination is used in concert with a phantom-based lookup-table
(LUT) to map wide-field optical properties in turbid media with reduced albedos as low as …

Light and Skin Interactions immerses you in one of the most fascinating application areas of
computer graphics: appearance simulation. The book first illuminates the fundamental …

The relationship between connective tissue and meridian function is discussed in terms of
energy transmission. The network of hydrogen-bonded water molecules interspersed within …

Cells sense cues in their surrounding microenvironment. These cues are converted into
intracellular signals and transduced to the nucleus in order for the cell to respond and adapt …

Abstract Background and Objective Laser surgery does not provide haptic feedback for
operating layer‐by‐layer and thereby preserving vulnerable anatomical structures like nerve …

In this study we investigated the light distribution under femtosecond laser illumination and
its correlation with the collected diffuse scattering at the surface of ex-vivo rat skin and liver …

Radio-frequency (rf) tissue fusion involves the sealing of tissue between two electrodes
delivering rf currents. Applications include small bowel fusion following anastomosis. The …
