The Handbook of Neurophotonics provides a dedicated overview of
neurophotonics, covering the use of advanced optical technologies
to record, stimulate, and control the activity of the brain,
yielding new insight and advantages over conventional tools due to
the adaptability and non-invasive nature of light. Including 30
colour figures, this book addresses functional studies of
neurovascular signaling, metabolism, electrical excitation, and
hemodynamics, as well as clinical applications for imaging and
manipulating brain structure and function. The unifying theme
throughout is not only to highlight the technology, but to show how
these novel methods are becoming critical to breakthroughs that
will lead to advances in our ability to manage and treat human
diseases of the brain. Key Features: Provides the first dedicated
book on state-of-the-art optical techniques for sensing and imaging
across at the cellular, molecular, network, and whole brain levels.
Highlights how the methods are used for measurement, control, and
tracking of molecular events in live neuronal cells, both in basic
research and clinical practice. Covers the entire spectrum of
approaches, from optogenetics to functional methods,
photostimulation, optical dissection, multiscale imaging,
microscopy, and structural imaging. Includes chapters that show use
of voltage-sensitive dye imaging, hemodynamic imaging, multiphoton
imaging, temporal multiplexing, multiplane microscopy, optoacoustic
imaging, near-infrared spectroscopy, and miniature neuroimaging
devices to track cortical brain activity.
