According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2014 impact factor of 2.859, ranking it 12th out of 86 journals in the category "Optics", [1] 31st out of 79 journals in the category "Biochemical Research Methods", [2] and 31st out of 125 journals in the category "Radiology, Nuclear Medicine & Medical Imaging".
imaging technology that generates high-resolution optical images including biological tissues. Multi-spectral optoacoustic tomography ( MSOT ), also known as functional photoacoustic tomography (fPAT), is an imaging technology that generates high-resolution optical images in scattering media , including biological tissues .
Journal of Biomedical Optics (JBO) is published monthly with the latest on optical technology in healthcare and research. Journal of Electronic Imaging (JEI), co-published bi-monthly with the Society for Imaging Science and Technology, publishes papers on electronic imaging science and technology.
Medical optical imaging is the use of light as an investigational imaging technique for medical applications, pioneered by American Physical Chemist Britton Chance. Examples include optical microscopy , spectroscopy , endoscopy , scanning laser ophthalmoscopy , laser Doppler imaging , optical coherence tomography , and transdermal optical imaging .
Photoacoustic imaging or optoacoustic imaging is a biomedical imaging modality based on the photoacoustic effect.Non-ionizing laser pulses are delivered into biological tissues and part of the energy will be absorbed and converted into heat, leading to transient thermoelastic expansion and thus wideband (i.e. MHz) ultrasonic emission.
Optical tomography is a form of computed tomography that creates a digital volumetric model of an object by reconstructing images made from light transmitted and scattered through an object. [1] Optical tomography is used mostly in medical imaging research.
Bioinstrumentation or biomedical instrumentation is an application of biomedical engineering which focuses on development of devices and mechanics used to measure, evaluate, and treat biological systems. The goal of biomedical instrumentation focuses on the use of multiple sensors to monitor physiological characteristics of a human or animal ...
Optical projection tomography is a form of tomography involving optical microscopy. [1] The OPT technique is sometimes referred to as optical computed tomography (optical-CT) and optical emission computed tomography (optical-ECT) in the literature, to address the fact that the technique bears similarity to X-ray computed tomography (CT) and ...
