Description for Biomedical Optics
Hardcover. The premier comprehensive reference on biomedical optics for practitioners and students Biophotonics is a rapidly growing field with applications in medicine, genetics, biology, agriculture, and environmental science. Num Pages: 376 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: MQW; TTB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 241 x 157 x 22. Weight in Grams: 664.
This entry-level textbook, covering the area of tissue optics, is based on the lecture notes for a graduate course (Bio-optical Imaging) that has been taught six times by the authors at Texas A&M University. After the fundamentals of photon transport in biological tissues are established, various optical imaging techniques for biological tissues are covered. The imaging modalities include ballistic imaging, quasi-ballistic imaging (optical coherence tomography), diffusion imaging, and ultrasound-aided hybrid imaging. The basic physics and engineering of each imaging technique are emphasized.
