Optical Polarization in Biomedical Applications introduces key developments in optical polarization methods for quantitative studies of tissues, while presenting the theory of polarization transfer in a random medium as a basis for the quantitative description of polarized light interaction with tissues.

To encompass all current methods, this updated handbook has been expanded into two volumes. Volume 2 begins by describing the basic principles and diagnostic applications of optical techniques based on detecting and processing the scattering, fluorescence, FT IR, and Raman spectroscopic signals from various tissues. The second half of the volume discusses specific imaging technologies.

Describes an optical clearing method based on reversible reduction of tissue scattering due to refractive index matching of scatterers and ground matter. This technique is a promising technique for developments in the fields of tissue imaging, spectroscopy, phototherapy, and laser surgery.
