Imaging and sensing technologies are essential in many applications. The recent volume, “Advances in Imaging and Sensing” edited by Shuo Tang and Daryoosh Saeedkia, introduces state-of-the-art advances in optical and terahertz (THz) imaging and sensing technologies, including device design, system development and current applications, both medical and nonmedical. The book consists of 12 chapters in three sections from 30 authors. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

This book is written for the researcher interested in using the imaging techniques delineated in Chapters 2-6 to accomplish in vivo imaging. It is recognized that readers may have acquired a variety of prior knowledge of some of the subjects; a thorough reading of the text and utilization of the references and (when offered) the suggested further readings should allow most users of this text to become conversant with the several methods discussed and, one hopes, prepared to initiate quantitative imaging studies relating to their area of science. The text is primarily (again, per the introduction) aimed at the macro tissue/organ scale aspects of imaging rather than any involving cellular or smaller investigations. Needless to say, the text is very well illustrated as befits a text on imaging. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
