Grueneisen-memory photoacoustic microscopy

— Lihong Wang, Professor at Washington University in St. Louis, is a pioneer in the field of Photoacoustic (PA) Imaging. His innovations have enabled non-invasive imaging of living organisms at scales ranging from subcellular to whole-body at depths and resolutions that are simply impossible with any …

Photon tunneling

— Photon tunneling has the potential to guide light to the core of a human body in vivo. Imaging, sensing, and therapy are among the applications for this technology. Light, as opposed to potentially harmful x-rays, is an ideal non-ionizing radiation for imaging and treating biological tissue, however…
