Optical molecular imaging for biomedical research

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

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.
