Diagnostic Biomedical Optics: Fundamentals and applications (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780750323659)

Diagnostic biomedical optics is an interdisciplinary branch of science and technology, which uses optics for improving the basic understanding of biological processes to enhance the diagnostic efficiency thereby enabling efficient treatment of human diseases. Each imaging modality has its own advantages and limitations, and one cannot fit one single modality for all diagnostic applications. This book will address several in depth analysis of relevant topics such as photoacoustics, Raman spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, diagnostic biomedical imaging, and high-resolution Imaging by giving clear and concise explanations of the scientific fundamentals and the applied technological aspects.

Key Features:

• A fully dedicated textbook covering all these important fundamentals, methodologies and applications are essential for teaching undergraduate and postgraduate students to equip themselves to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow in the relevant fields.

• The chapters cover important topics such as the basic optics required for biomedical Optics, Diagnostics medical imaging, High resolution Imaging, Photoacoustics, Raman spectroscopy and Hyperspectral Imaging.
