Hardcover

ISBN 10: 3030445933 ISBN 13: 9783030445935

Publisher: Springer, 2020

Synopsis

This book provides an in-depth description and discussion of different multi-modal diagnostic techniques for cancer detection and treatment using exact optical methods, their comparison, and combination. Coverage includes detailed descriptions of modern state of design for novel methods of optical non-invasive cancer diagnostics; multi-modal methods for earlier cancer diagnostic enhancing the probability of effective cancer treatment; modern clinical trials with novel methods of clinical cancer diagnostics; medical and technical aspects of clinical cancer diagnostics, and long-term monitoring. Biomedical engineers, cancer researchers, and scientists will find the book to be an invaluable resource.

• Introduces optical imaging strategies;
• Focuses on multimodal optical diagnostics as a fundamental approach;
• Discusses novel methods of optical non-invasive cancer diagnostics.

He is also the head of laboratory, Institute of Precision Mechanics and Control, Russian Academy of Sciences, and the supervisor of Interdisciplinary laboratory of Biophotonics at National Research Tomsk State University. Dr. Tuchin is the editor of the Handbook of Coherent-Domain Optical Methods: Biomedical Diagnostics, Environmental Monitoring, and Materials Science (Springer). His research interests include biophotonics, tissue optics, laser medicine, tissue optical clearing, and nanobiophotonics. He is a guest professor of Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) and Tianjin Universities of China, and adjunct professor at University of Limerick and National University of Ireland, Galway. He is member and fellow of SPIE and OSA, and a member of the IEEE.

Jürgen Popp studied chemistry at the Universitiesof Erlangen and Wuerzburg. After his PhD in Chemistry, he joined Yale University for postdoctoral work. Since 2002 he has held the chair for Physical Chemistry at the Friedrich-Schiller University, Jena. Furthermore, since 2006, he is the Scientific Director of the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology, Jena. His research interests are mainly concerned with biophotonics according to the needs of pathology, oncology, and infection/sepsis. He is a member and fellow of SAS and SPIE.

Valery P. Zakharov is a Professor and Chair of the Laser and Biotechnical Systems Department, and Head of the Photonics Laboratory, at Samara National Research University.
