Course Description
This course will focus on non-invasive methods/techniques that use visible light/NIR/UV to monitor biological processes in humans, animal models and cells. The first part of the course will focus on the basic principles of light (e.g. radiation transport equation) and light-tissue interactions. The second part will focus on a variety of spectroscopic and imaging methods, flow cytometry and more. Applications include: The pulse oximeter, monitoring metabolic activity and non-invasive diagnosis of diseases. The course is designed for biomedical engineering students who plan to work in the medical device industry.
