In Vivo Non-Invasive Optical Imaging Approaches for Biological Systems (UG3/UH3 Clinical Trials Not Allowed

closed

The purpose of the Advancing Non-Invasive Optical Imaging Approaches for Biological Systems initiative is to overcome the problem of light scattering in biological systems. Current optical imaging techniques that are non-invasive and allow rapid assessment of tissue function and structure suffer from strong light scattering within biological tissues, limiting the penetration depth and resolution. This funding opportunity encourages development of next-generation non-invasive or minimally-invasive optical imaging techniques to overcome these issues and to allow deeper imaging of biological systems with high spatial and temporal resolution.
