Optical
imaging of biological systems has undergone spectacular development in
recent years, producing a quantity and a quality of information that,
just twenty years ago, could only be dreamed of by physicists,
biologists and physicians.
Unconventional imaging systems provide
access to physical quantities – phase, absorption, optical index, the
polarization property of a wave or the chemical composition of an object
– not accessible to conventional measurement systems. To achieve this,
these systems use special optical setups and specific digital image
processing to reconstruct physical quantities. This field is also known
as computational imaging.
This book presents various
non-conventional imaging modalities developed for the biomedical field:
wave front analysis imaging, digital holography/tomography, optical
nanoscopy, endoscopy and singlesensor imaging. Experimental setups and
reconstruction algorithms are presented for each modality.
