Optical molecular imaging is a promising emerging technology that offers significant advances in medical physics. The long term objective of my research program is to develop optical molecular imaging tools for biological discovery, that facilitate quantitative and rapid analysis, and have the potential for future clinical translation. Within the scope of this Discovery grant, the initial research uses ovarian cancer as the biological model. The optical molecular imaging tools developed in the course of this research, however will have broad applicability and could be adapted in the future to image other disease models.

光学分子成像是一项有前途的新兴技术，为医学物理学提供了重大进展。我的研究计划的长期目标是开发用于生物发现的光学分子成像工具，促进定量和快速分析，并具有未来临床翻译的潜力。在这项发现基金的范围内，最初的研究使用卵巢癌作为生物学模型。然而，在本研究过程中开发的光学分子成像工具将具有广泛的适用性，并且可以在未来适应其他疾病模型的成像。
