牙釉质在近红外（NIR）中高度透明;因此，电磁光谱的这一区域非常适合开发用于早期龋齿检测和成像的新光学诊断工具。本文讨论了声音和脱矿牙釉质的近红外光学特性和潜在的使用偏振敏感的光学相干断层扫描和近红外透照龋齿成像。
Enamel is highly transparent in the near infrared (NIR); therefore, this region of the electromagnetic spectrum is suited ideally for the development of new optical diagnostic tools for the detection and imaging of early dental caries. This article discusses the NIR optical properties of sound and demineralized dental enamel and the potential use of polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography and NIR transillumination for the imaging of dental caries.
