Second-harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy has shown great promise
for imaging live cells and tissues, with applications in basic
science, medical research, and tissue engineering. Second Harmonic
Generation Imaging offers a complete guide to this optical
modality, from basic principles, instrumentation, methods, and
image analysis to biomedical applications. The book features
contributions by experts in second-harmonic imaging, including many
pioneering researchers in the field. Written for researchers at all
levels, it takes an in-depth look at the current state of the art
and possibilities of SHG microscopy. Organized into three sections,
the book: Provides an introduction to the physics of the process,
step-by-step instructions on how to build an SHG microscope, and
comparisons with related imaging techniques Gives an overview of
the capabilities of SHG microscopy for imaging tissues and
cells-including cell membranes, muscle, collagen in tissues, and
microtubules in live cells-by summarizing experimental and
analytical methods Highlights representative biomedical and medical
applications in imaging cancer, fibroses, autoimmune diseases,
connective tissue disorders, eye pathologies, and cardiovascular
disease Historically, clinical imaging at the cellular and tissue
level has been performed by pathologists on ex vivo biopsies
removed by the surgeon. While histology remains the "gold standard"
for pathologists, its interpretation remains highly subjective.
Much of SHG research has focused on developing more quantitative,
objective metrics. A tutorial for newcomers and an up-to-date
review for experts, this book explores how SHG may be used to more
precisely image a wide range of pathological conditions and
diseases.
