“Measuring and modeling scattered light for quantitative contrast of nanoscale tissue structure”

Light scattering in tissue is often considered problematic for imaging because it limits depth and contrast in many imaging modalities. However, scattered light carries information that can be used to quantify tissue structure at the nanoscale and develop new sources of image contrast. Exploiting scattered light contrast requires development of instruments for detailed characterization of tissue scattering, computational modeling, and customized imaging instruments. The sensitivity of scattered light to subtle differences in cellular and extracellular structure provides advantages in a wide range of applications including low cost cancer screening as well as development of new sources of quantitative contrast in retinal imaging.

Refreshments will be served immediately following the seminar
