This work assesses quasi-distributed Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) and Rayleigh scattering-
based distributed sensing for accurate and millimeter resolved thermometry in media …

The rapid development of new optical imaging techniques is dependent on the availability of
low-cost and easily reproducible standards for technique validation. This work describes a …

Many efforts have recently concentrated on constructing and developing nanoparticles
(NPs) as promising thermal agent for optical hyperthermia and photothermal therapy …

Skin cancer is a significant global health issue, placing a growing burden on individuals and
society. Conventional diagnostic methods like visual examination and biopsy have …

Objective: We implement a data assimilation Bayesian framework for the reconstruction of
the spatiotemporal profile of the tissue temperature during laser irradiation. The predictions …

Background Recently, some adverse effects of moxibustion has been reported such as
burns, smoke, allergies, and so on. To overcome the adverse effects of traditional …

Metastatic diseases are the primary causes of death among cancer patients. Photothermal
therapy, which combines near-infrared lasers, gold nanorods (GNRs), and skin surface …

Photosensitive polymeric three-dimensional microstructured film (PTMF) is a new type of
patterned polymeric films functionalized with an array of sealed hollow 3D containers. The …

Abstract Purpose Tissue-mimicking materials (TMMs) have a prominent role in validating
new high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapies. Agar-based TMMs are often …

One way to diagnose a disease is to examine pictures of tissue thought to be affected by the
disease. Near-infrared properties are subdivided into nonionizing, noninvasive, and …
