商品描述

This book focuses on polarization microscopy, a powerful optical tool used to study anisotropic properties in biomolecules, and its enormous potential to improve diagnostic tools for various biomedical research. The interaction of polarized light with normal and abnormal regions of tissue reveals structural information associated with its pathological condition. Diagnosis using conventional microscopy can be time-consuming, as pathologists require an hour to freeze and stain tissue slices from suspected patients. In comparison, polarization microscopy more quickly distinguishes abnormal tissue and provides better microstructural information of samples, even in the absence of staining. This book provides a basic understanding of the properties of polarized light, a description of the polarization microscope, and a mathematical formalism of Mueller matrix polarimetry. The authors discuss various advanced linear and nonlinear optical techniques such as optical coherence tomography (OCT), reflectance and transmission spectroscopy, fluorescence, multiphoton excitation, second harmonic generation, Raman microscopy, and more. They explore the exciting potential of integrating polarimetry with these techniques for possible applications in different areas of biomedical research, as well as the associated challenges. Including the most recent developments on the topic, this book serves as a modern guide to polarization microscopy and advancements in its use in biomedical research.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書專注於偏振顯微鏡,這是一種強大的光學工具,用於研究生物分子的各向異性特性,以及其在改善各種生物醫學研究診斷工具方面的巨大潛力。偏振光與正常和異常組織區域的相互作用揭示了與其病理狀況相關的結構信息。使用傳統顯微鏡進行診斷可能耗時,因為病理學家需要一小時來冷凍和染色來自可疑患者的組織切片。相比之下,偏振顯微鏡能更快地區分異常組織,並提供樣本的更好微觀結構信息,即使在沒有染色的情況下。本書提供了對偏振光特性的基本理解,描述了偏振顯微鏡,以及穆勒矩陣偏振測量的數學形式。作者討論了各種先進的線性和非線性光學技術,如光學相干斷層掃描(OCT)、反射和透射光譜、螢光、多光子激發、二次諧波生成、拉曼顯微鏡等。他們探討了將偏振測量與這些技術整合的令人興奮的潛力,以便在不同的生物醫學研究領域進行可能的應用,以及相關的挑戰。本書包括該主題的最新發展,作為偏振顯微鏡及其在生物醫學研究中應用進展的現代指南。
