Origin of signals in tissue imaging and spectroscopy

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

In biomedical optics, the specimens usually have a "Goldilocks" quality: some structures are much larger than an optical wavelength, some are much smaller, and some are just about the same size. Consequently, biological absorption, emission, and scattering properties can have strong wavelength and angular dependences. This tutorial will explain the nature of the dependences and survey some of the ways they are exploited for biomedical purposes.Full-text article is not available.
