Optical Polarization in Biomedical Applications
暫譯: 生物醫學應用中的光學偏振

第二版的書籍《光學偏振在生物醫學應用中的應用》由Springer於2006年出版，探討了光的獨特特徵——偏振——在定量組織特徵化中的光學方法。新版本將介紹新主題並擴展現有的前沿發展。特別關注於Mueller偏振測量法的最新理論和儀器進展及其潛在的臨床應用，討論光學組織清晰化的原理和概念、軌道角動量、量子糾纏光子在組織偏振光學中的應用、DNA序列的偏振編碼和符號映射，以及用於病理特徵提取的機器學習。

一些對偏振敏感的光學方法已經找到了臨床應用，而另一些仍處於研究階段，但在不久的將來可能成為各種醫療領域的突破性技術。最近在Stokes-Muller偏振測量法方面的發展，已經導致對各種組織進行了廣泛的體外和體內研究。在診斷數據後處理的矩陣Mueller代數領域、將偏振蒙特卡羅方法擴展到研究散射各向異性介質以模擬偏振光與組織的相互作用，以及尋找某些類型病理的最佳光學標記方面都取得了重要進展。這些結果對光學工程師、研究人員、學生和臨床醫生都具有吸引力，他們尋求通過評估微結構特徵來確定組織完整性，並在新偏振技術的開發中尋找解決診斷問題的新革命性方法。
