Learning objectives
Knowledge of how light propagation occurs in materials, in particular in biological tissues, to understand how preclinical and clinical investigations can be carried out using the optical imaging technique
Prerequisites and basic notions
Knowledge of mathematics and physics at high school level
Program
Part 1: description of the light transport in biological tissues with a special focus on absorption and scattering processes and the Lambert-Beer equation.
The light emission processes and images acquisition. In particular, fluorescence imaging and some preclinical applications and bioluminescence imaging and some experimental investigations used in the oncological field. Description of the instruments for optical imaging acquisitions: technical equipment and image acquisition parameters.
Part 2: New emerging imaging techniques: radioluminescence imaging and Cerenkov Imaging in preclinical field and first attempt on humans.
Other applications in food and vegetables monitoring, Chlorophyll imaging.
