Polarization of light has been widely used as a contrast mechanism in two-dimensional (2D) microscopy and also some three-dimensional (3D) imaging modalities. In this paper, we report the 3D tomographic reconstruction refractive index (RI) tensor using 2D scattered fields measured for different illumination angles polarizations. Conventional optical diffraction tomography (ODT) quantitative, la...

This review describes the diffusion model for light transport in tissues and the medical applications of diffuse light. Diffuse optics is particularly useful for measurement of tissue hemodynamics, wherein quantitative assessment of oxy- and deoxy-hemoglobin concentrations and blood flow are desired. The theoretical basis for near-infrared or diffuse optical spectroscopy (NIRS or DOS, respectiv...

Optical coherence tomography is a powerful tool that can e ectively provide detail information of biological tissue structure. The axis resolution of optical coherence tomographyhas achieved sub-micrometer andweare interested in its ultrahigh resolution that can be practically utilized for clinical application. In this article, the basic system calibration is discussed; we systematically demons...
