报告摘要：This presentation will focus on our recent progresses on developing high-resolution OCT and nonlinear endomicroscopy technologies. These technologies have shown promising translational potential for direct visualization of tissue microanatomies in vivo, in situ and in real time at a resolution approaching or at standard histology but without the need for tissue removal, staining or processing. The physics principles, engineering challenges and solutions will be briefly discussed. Representative clinical applications of these imaging technologies will be presented, including cancer detection, small airway pathophysiology imaging, preterm birth risk assessment, and intra-operative guidance for neurosurgery. Other potential applications towards basic research such as functional neuroimaging on freely walking animals will also be discussed.
