Lecture goals

The objective of this course is to provide a detailed and advanced description of the theory and applications in biomedical optics. More particularly, this course is interested in the theory of photons propagation in diffusive media, in acquisition and processing methods, and in their application in biology and health.

Detailed outline

The course is composed of the following lectures:

1- Introduction : optical contrast theory

2- Light propagation modeling: Radiative transport equation and diffusion approximation

3- Light propagation modeling: Higher order approximations and statistical methods

4- Acquisition and processing methods in diffuse optics

5- Diffuse optical tomography

6- Fluorescence imaging methods

7- Optical diagnosis and treatment

8- Photoacoustic and flow imaging

9- Optical Coherence Tomography

Applications

Examples, software or hardware demos, visits, ...

Acquired skills

Following this course, the student will have acquired the fundamental theory for applying photonics methods in biology and health. He will have developed the necessary skills to conduct projects involving photonics in biological media.
