A handheld optical probe for breast imaging using Monte Carlo Simulation technique

TL;DR: In this article, a hand-held optical scanner is designed with a source at the center and 10 detectors at either side of the source, which can detect the embedded tissues as small as 2mm and located as deep as 5mm from the surface.

Development and Phantom study on Near-Infrared Diffuse Optical Tomographic Imager

TL;DR: In this paper, the 3rd generation CT in fan-beam with rotating source and detectors was used for near-infrared tomographic imaging of tissue, which can give structural anatomy data based on attenuation coefficients and absorption spectra of biological tissue.

Optical Scanning System for Imaging of Heterogeneity in Biological Tissues

TL;DR: Three images of the index finger show the tissue structural variation in various layers, which are in agreement with anatomical details and radiograph of the finger.

Optical Scanning System for Imaging of Heterogeneity in Biological Tissues

TL;DR: In this article, a noninvasive scanning system with a hand-held optical probe for imaging of compositional changes in biological tissues is presented. But the system is not suitable for the detection of inhomogeneity in human tissue.

NIR Reflectance Imaging of Biological Tissue Using Multiple Sources and Detectors

TL;DR: This reflectance type optical system if made with more sources and detectors to cover a larger area can be used for monitoring the brain function in premature babies, intravascular hemorrhages and hypoxic-ischemia.

Optical coherence tomography

TL;DR: OCT as discussed by the authors uses low-coherence interferometry to produce a two-dimensional image of optical scattering from internal tissue microstructures in a way analogous to ultrasonic pulse-echo imaging.

Optical Coherence Tomography

TL;DR: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has developed rapidly since its first realisation in medicine and is currently an emerging technology in the diagnosis of skin disease as mentioned in this paper, where OCT is an interferometric technique that detects reflected and backscattered light from tissue.

Optical properties of biological tissues: a review.

TL;DR: A review of reported tissue optical properties summarizes the wavelength-dependent behavior of scattering and absorption in cells and tissues.

MCML-Monte Carlo modeling of light transport in multi-layered tissues

Wang, +2 more
TL;DR: A Monte Carlo model of steady-state light transport in multi-layered tissues (MCML) has been coded in ANSI Standard C; therefore, the program can be used on various computers and has been in the public domain since 1992.
