Significance: Beer–Lambert law (BLL) is a widely used tool for contact and remote
determination of absorber concentration in various media, including living tissues. Originally …

Using a camera as an optical sensor to monitor physiological parameters has garnered
considerable research interest in biomedical engineering in recent decades. Researchers …

Objectives: To determine the difference in light reflection of oral mucosa covering titanium
(Ti) or zirconia (ZrO2) abutments as it relates to the thickness of the covering mucosa …

Optical imaging plays a major role in disease detection in dermatology. However, current
optical methods are limited by lack of three‐dimensional detection of pathophysiological …

Oxygenation measurements are widely used in patient care. However, most clinically
available instruments currently consist of contact probes that only provide global monitoring …

This book explores new ideas, concepts, and technologies such as dynamic thermal
imaging, thermal texture mapping, and thermal multispectral imaging commonly used in the …

Space limitation leads to competition between benthic, sessile organisms on coral reefs. As
a primary example, reef-building corals are in direct contact with each other and many …

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

To minimize the problem with scattering in deep tissues while increasing the penetration
depth, we explored the feasibility of imaging in the relatively unexplored extended near …

The capacity of optical imaging methods to characterize biological tissue in general, and
skin in particular, with high resolution and discrimination ability provides a very valuable tool …
