Report Description
Optical imaging is an emerging non-invasive technology that enables detailed and more precise
assessment of tissues, organs and even molecules. Optical imaging uses visible light and
photons to obtain exhaustive images of tissues and organs as well as smaller structures such as
cells and molecules. Compared to other imaging technologies such as X-ray and MRI, which use
ionizing radiation for obtaining images; optical imaging proved to be much safer and efficient.
Optical imaging has also been observed to be of great potential for disease prevention,
diagnosis and treatment. Optical imaging uses various colors and spectra of light in order to
measure and perceive the varied properties of a tissue or an organ, simultaneously. However,
other imaging technologies are restricted to just few measurements. Although, optical imaging
technology is in the early phase of development, they offer a wide range of technological
advantages (such as multi-applicability and non-invasiveness) over existing imaging
technologies.
