Abstract
Biomedical Optical Imaging is
edited by two eminent and distinguished
educator-scientists. Professor
James G. Fujimoto is with
the Department of Electrical
Engineering and Computer Sciences
at the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology and also an adjunct
professor of ophthalmology
at the Tufts New England Medical
Center. Professor Daniel L. Farkas
is the vice chairman for research
in the Department of Surgery and
the director of the Minimally Invasive Surgical Technologies
Institute at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles;
he is also a research professor in biomedical engineering at
the University of Southern California and an adjunct professor
with the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University. The
editors designated eminent researchers and their colleagues to
contribute chapters on the application of optical imaging to
the field of biomedicine. The editors state that their choice of
topics in this book is focused mainly on reviewing technologies
that are currently used in research, industry, or medicine,
rather than those that are being developed. The interests of the
editors and the space limitations of a 400-page book limited
the scope of the chapter selections; other editors would have
provided a different table of contents. Notably there are no
chapters that cover the modern important advances in photoacoustic
imaging.
