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 polarimetric techniques are used in various biomedical applications for a non-contact
and fast diagnosis of tissue that is known as optical biopsy approach. These optical …

The cervix is composed of layers of squamous epithelium and connective tissue. The main
component of the cervical connective tissue is collagen, which has specific orientations in …

The advent of imagers with integrated linear polarization selectivity opens new opportunities
for researchers interested in the polarization properties of biological tissues. In this Letter …

Preterm birth risk is associated with early softening of the uterine cervix in pregnancy due to
the accelerated remodeling of collagen extracellular matrix. Studies of mice model of …

The cervix plays a crucial role in conception, maintenance of pregnancy, and childbirth. The
mechanical properties of a pregnant woman's cervix change dramatically during gestation …

We investigate a possibility of producing the quantitative optical metrics to characterize the
evolution of gastric tissue from healthy conditions via inflammation to cancer by using …

Mueller microscopy studies of fixed unstained histological cuts of human skin models were
combined with an analysis of experimental data within the framework of differential Mueller …

Significance Among the available polarimetric techniques, backscattering Mueller matrix
(MM) polarimetry provides a promising non-contact and quantitative tool for in vivo tissue …

We developed a collinear reflection Mueller matrix microscope by adding polarization state
generator (PSG) and polarization state analyzer (PSA) into the illumination and detection …
