Today the increasing cancer incidence rate is becoming one of the biggest threats to human
health. Among all types of cancers, liver cancer ranks in the top five in both frequency and …

Cell refractive index (RI) is an intrinsic optical parameter that governs the propagation of
light (ie, scattering and absorption) in the cell matrix. The RI of cell is sensitively correlated …

In biophotonics, novel techniques and approaches are being constantly sought to assist
medical doctors and to increase both sensitivity and specificity of the existing diagnostic …

Tissue polarimetry holds great promise to improve the effectiveness of conventional cancer
diagnostics and staging, being a fast, minimally invasive, and low-cost optical technique. We …
