Optical Molecular Imaging for Diagnosing Intestinal Diseases
Real-time visualization of the molecular signature of cells can be achieved with advanced targeted imaging techniques using molecular probes and fluorescence endoscopy. This molecular optical imaging in gastrointestinal endoscopy is promising for improving the detection of neoplastic lesions, their characterization for patient stratification, and the assessment of their response to molecular ta...
متن کاملRadiative transport theory for optical molecular imaging
We study the inverse fluorescent source problem for optical molecular imaging. In particular, we recover key properties of a fluorescent source inside a halfspace composed of a uniform absorbing and scattering medium from angularly resolved measurements at the boundary plane. We use the radiative transport equation to model the multiple scattering of light in tissues. Using Green’s function, gi...
متن کاملMolecular imaging of pulmonary diseases
Imaging holds an important role in the diagnosis of lung diseases. Along with clinical tests, noninvasive imaging techniques provide complementary and valuable information that enables a complete differential diagnosis. Various novel molecular imaging tools are currently under investigation aimed toward achieving a better understanding of lung disease physiopathology as well as early detection ...
متن کاملComputational methods for optical molecular imaging.
A new computational technique, the matched interface and boundary (MIB) method, is presented to model the photon propagation in biological tissue for the optical molecular imaging. Optical properties have significant differences in different organs of small animals, resulting in discontinuous coefficients in the diffusion equation model. Complex organ shape of small animal induces singularities...
متن کاملUsing Nuclear Medicine Imaging Wisely in Diagnosing Infectious Diseases
In recent years, there has been an increasing emphasis on efficient and accurate diagnostic testing, exemplified by the American Board of Internal Medicine's "Choosing Wisely" campaign. Nuclear imaging studies can provide early and accurate diagnoses of many infectious disease syndromes, particularly in complex cases where the differential remains broad. This review paper offers clinicians a ra...
