The standard-of-care for the detection of laryngeal pathologies involves distinguishing
suspicious lesions from surrounding healthy tissue via contrasts in colour and texture …

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 …

Polarisation imaging has the potential to provide enhanced contrast based on variations in
the optical properties, such as scattering or birefringence, of the tissue of interest. Examining …

Polarization is one of the most salient features of light, even more so than its spectral or
coherence properties. Imaging and diagnostics modalities that utilize light polarization could …
