Microwave Photonics applied to fNIR based biomedical imaging?

Microwave Photonics techniques are applied to functional near IR (fNIR) imaging systems, where absorption and scattering parameters of tissue is extracted using multi-wavelength spectroscopy. Clinical applications of fNIR systems to anesthesia and wound healing are also discussed.
