Synopsis

This is the textbook and reference resource that instructors, students, and researchers in biomedical optics have been waiting for. Comprehensive and up to date, it covers a broad range of areas in biomedical optics, from light interactions at the single-photon and single-biomolecule levels, to the diffusion regime of light propagation in tissue. Subjects covered include spectroscopic techniques (fluorescence, Raman, infrared, near-infrared, and elastic scattering), imaging techniques (diffuse optical tomography,...

About this title

Book Description

Aimed at graduate level biomedical optics courses, this comprehensive text provides a rigorous quantitative approach. Based on clear explanations of underlying physical science principles, this book brings together a broad range of topics including spectroscopic techniques, imaging techniques and laser-tissue interactions. Practical problem sets and selected solutions complete the package.

About the Author

Irving Bigio is Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Electrical Engineering at Boston University. His research activities address the interactions of light with cellular and tissue structures on the microscopic and mesoscopic scales. He pioneered methods of elastic scattering spectroscopy and has developed practical diagnostic and sensing applications that have been demonstrated in large clinical studies. He has co-authored over 200 scientific publications and is an inventor on...
