Low-coherence Biophotonics Imaging for the Brain Abstract This talk will highlight our recent efforts in exploring the brain using low-coherence light. We will discuss two scenarios: intraoperative assessment of brain cancer infiltration in patients and real-time imaging of dynamic neural activities in freely behaving rodents. In the first scenario (clinical translation), we developed a color-coded […]
