Advances in Optical Biopsy and Optical Mammography by Robert R. Alfano Alfano describes diagnostic and therapeutic imaging using near-infrared and other visible light as minimally invasive, safer than x-rays and other conventional techniques, potentially more affordable, and able to detect and diagnose diseases with high sensitivity and specificity. Sixteen papers, from an April 1997 conference in New York, cover optical imaging in tissue, optical tomography, fluorescence and spectroscopy, and pathology and correlation studies. The written contributions to a concluding panel discussion summarize and evaluate the papers.
