This review describes the diffusion model for light transport in tissues and the medical
applications of diffuse light. Diffuse optics is particularly useful for measurement of tissue …

This is a review of recent mathematical and computational advances in optical tomography.
We discuss the physical foundations of forward models for light propagation on microscopic …

Diffuse optical imaging and spectroscopy of the female breast is an area of active research.
We review the present status of this field and discuss the broad range of methodologies and …

We employ diffuse optical tomography (DOT) to track treatment progress in a female subject
presenting with locally advanced invasive carcinoma of the breast during neoadjuvant …

We have developed a novel parallel-plate diffuse optical tomography (DOT) system for three-
dimensional in vivo imaging of human breast tumor based on large optical data sets. Images …

Fluorescence microscopic imaging is widely used in biomedical research to study molecular
and cellular processes in cell culture or tissue samples. This is motivated by the high …

In recent years, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has gained importance for non-invasive
or minimally invasive diagnostic applications in cancer. This technology is based on …

Magnetic resonance (MR)-guided near-infrared spectral tomography was developed and
used to image adipose and fibroglandular breast tissue of 11 normal female subjects …

PURPOSE To investigate prospectively the feasibility of using optical tomography with
ultrasonographic (US) localization to differentiate malignant from benign breast masses and …

Breast imaging is largely indicated for detection, diagnosis, and clinical management of
breast cancer and for evaluation of the integrity of breast implants. In this work, a prospective …
