Unconventional optical imaging for biology

In recent years, optical imaging of biological systems has undergone spectacular developments, delivering a quantity and quality of information, which, twenty years ago, would be considered unimaginable by physicists, biologists and doctors.

This work, published by Corinne Fournier (Lecturer at the Jean Monnet University and member of the Hubert Curien Laboratory in Saint-Étienne) and Olivier Haeberlé (Professor at the Université de Haute-Alsace and member of IRIMAS in Mulhouse) presents various unconventional imaging modalities developed for the biomedical field.

These unconventional imaging systems enable to access to physical values (opacity, phase, optical index, polarisation of a wave, chemical composition of an object) not accessible to conventional measuring systems. In order to achieve this, these systems use special optical setups and specific digital processing methods of the acquired data allowing for the reconstruction of physical values. It is also known as computational imaging.

Several teams of the Grand Est region in Mulhouse, Nancy and Strasbourg contributed to four chapters of this work about holography, tomographic microscopy, interferometric microscopy, multimodal and multispectral endoscopy.

 

This work is now available in French (ISBN for paper version: 9781789481327, for ebook: 9781789491326) and in English (ISBN for paper version: 978-1-789-45132-0, for ebook : ISBN: 978-1-394-28398-9).
