چکیده

Diffuse optical imaging is a medical imaging technique that is beginning to move from the laboratory to the hospital. It is a natural extension of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), which is now used in certain niche applications clinically and particularly for physiological and psychological research. Optical imaging uses sophisticated image reconstruction techniques to generate images from multiple NIRS measurements. The two main clinical applications--functional brain imaging and imaging for breast cancer--are reviewed in some detail, followed by a discussion of other issues such as imaging small animals and multimodality imaging. We aim to review the state of the art of optical imaging.

Mathematical modeling of fluorescence diffuse optical imaging of cell membrane potential changes

The aim of this paper is to provide a mathematical model for spatial distribution of membrane electrical potential changes by fluorescence diffuse optical tomography. We derive the resolving power of the imaging method in the presence of measurement noise. The proposed mathematical model can be used for cell membrane tracking with the resolution of the optical microscope. Mathematics Subject Cl...

Depth Sensitivity Analysis of high-density imaging arrays for mapping brain function with Diffuse Optical Tomography

Developing diffuse optical tomography methods for neuroimaging of humans is challenging due geometry and light level constraints. Analysis of multi-distant high-density imaging arrays shows the feasibility of imaging up to 20 mm depth within the adult brain. ©2008 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (170.6960) Tomography; (170.2655) Functional monitoring and imaging; (330.4270) Vision system...
