This article presents an overview of time-resolved (lifetime) fluorescence techniques used in
biomedical diagnostics. In particular, we review the development of time-resolved …

When light is incident to a biological tissue surface, combinations of optical processes occur,
such as reflection, absorption, elastic and non-elastic scattering, and fluorescence. Analysis …

Oral cancer is a growing health issue in a number of low-and middle-income countries
(LMIC), particularly in South and Southeast Asia. The described dual-modality, dual-view …

Background The purpose of this study was to assess the value of narrow band imaging (NBI)
endoscopy in the diagnosis of pharyngolaryngeal lesions and to demonstrate the validity of …

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common oral and maxillofacial
malignancy, and its morbidity and mortality rates are still high in most countries. Oral …

The paper proposes an innovative deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) combined
with texture map for detecting cancerous regions and marking the ROI in a single model …

BACKGROUND: Optical spectroscopy is a noninvasive technique with potential applications
for diagnosis of oral dysplasia and early cancer. In this study, we evaluated the diagnostic …

We report a pilot study carried out to evaluate the applicability of in vivo Raman
spectroscopy for differential diagnosis of malignant and potentially malignant lesions of …

Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) with a fiber-optic probe can noninvasively quantify
the optical properties of epithelial tissues and has shown the potential as a cost-effective …

Conventional cancer screening and diagnostic techniques are costly, time consuming, and
available only in big city hospitals. Equipping these techniques in villages, local clinics or …
