Opis

Biomedical photonics is defined as the science of harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy to address problems in medicine and biology. The field has experienced explosive growth due to the noninvasive or minimally invasive nature and cost-effectiveness of photonic modalities in medical diagnostics and therapy. The second volume of the Biomedical Photonics Handbook, Second Edition focuses on biomedical diagnostics. It is an authoritative reference source for those involved in the research, teaching, learning, and practice of medical technologies.
