PRINCIPLES OF DIFFUSE LIGHT PROPAGATION

“This textbook is a valuable reference for anyone interested in the field of light propagation in tissues and biomedical imaging applications. Elegantly written, it nicely fills the gap between theory and practical issues. Highly recommended to students or established researchers, who are eager for a basic understanding of light transport models and their use in quantitative imaging in biology and medicine.”

“The book concentrates on laying out the mathematical details step by step rather than discussing many practical applications. It is thus most suitable for physicist for engineers (or students in this field) familiar with some basic mathematical notations. Studying the book requires no prior knowledge about diffuse light imaging and thus can be particularly useful for researchers entering this fascinating and booming field of research.”

“It contains a logical and thorough derivation of the mathematical framework, which makes the solution of this inverse problem understandable. The author has done a very good job in writing a book that is simultaneously informative, interesting, accessible and very timely. I recommend this book for anyone with an interest or performing research in the field of diffuse optics.”
