Towards a flexible polarimetric camera-on-Tip miniature endoscope for 3x3 Mueller matrix measurements of biological tissue

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingsChapterpeer-review

Abstract

The interrogation of polarisation state of light is a developing technique in biomedical imaging. As polarised light interacts with structural changes in tissue, it has seen use in differentiation between (pre)cancerous and noncancerous tissue, for example.[1] In biomedical imaging rapid diagnostics using minimally invasive techniques is desirable. Endoscopy is already very prevalent in medicine and therefore miniaturisation of polarimetry systems onto endoscopic platforms is a natural development. Flexibility of such a device allows navigation to more complicated parts of the body. All polarimetric systems consist of a polarisation state generator (PSG) and a polarisation state analyser (PSA) which need to be integrated into such a system.
