In this review, we describe dielectric properties of biological tissues and liquids in the
context of terahertz (THz) biophotonics. We discuss a model of the THz dielectric permittivity …

One of the main challenges for computer-assisted surgery (CAS) is to determine the intra-
operative morphology and motion of soft-tissues. This information is prerequisite to the …

Recent technological developments have resulted in the availability of miniaturised spectral
imaging sensors capable of operating in the multi-(MSI) and hyperspectral imaging (HSI) …

Multispectral endomicroscopy provides tissue functional information in addition to structural
information for accurate disease diagnosis. In this Letter, we propose a snapshot …

The contrast mechanism of medical endoscopy is mainly based on metrics of optical
intensity and wavelength. As another fundamental property of light, polarization can not only …

The early detection and diagnosis of malignant colorectal tumors enables the initiation of
early-stage therapy and can significantly increase the survival rate and post-treatment …

This paper briefly examines methods for the generation of pulsed terahertz radiation and
principles of pulsed terahertz spectroscopy, an advanced informative method for studies of …

An efficient approach to dynamically reconstruct region of interest (ROI) on a beating heart
from stereo-endoscopic video is developed. A ROI is first pre-reconstructed with a …

Purpose Recovering tissue deformation during robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery
procedures is important for providing intra-operative guidance, enabling in vivo imaging …

Purpose Hyperspectral imaging is an emerging technology recently introduced in medical
applications inasmuch as it provides a powerful tool for noninvasive tissue characterization …
