Biomedical optics is a rapidly advancing area of research at the intersection of physics, engineering and biology that deals with the interaction of light with living systems. Optical interrogation technologies such as near-infrared radiance spectroscopy and optoacoustic imaging offer the potential for detecting tissue changes at the microstructural, biochemical and molecular levels. Research in this area is driven by the attractiveness of minimally invasive or non-invasive technologies that do not involve exposing people to ionizing radiation.

生物医学光学是物理学、工程学和生物学交叉的一个快速发展的研究领域，涉及光与生命系统的相互作用。光学询问技术，如近红外辐射光谱和光声成像提供了潜在的检测组织的变化，在微观结构，生物化学和分子水平。这一领域的研究是由不涉及使人暴露于电离辐射的微创或非侵入性技术的吸引力推动的。
