FLUORESCENCE-MEDIATED MOLECULAR TOMOGRAPHY

摘要

System (10) includes a continuous (CW) laser source (12). The laser (12) uses constant intensity light. Two wavelengths obtained from the two lasers can be used for imaging the intrinsic contrast. The optical switch (16) directs light from laser (12) to any one of multiple fibers (18). Fluorescent light collected by multipoint detector array (21) is fed through detector fibers (22) to a two-dimensional emitted fluorescent light array (24). The two-dimensional array (21) transmits the fluorescence signals to a long pass filter (25) and to CCD camera (26) providing an image.
