In regenerative medicine, tissue engineers largely rely on
destructive and time-consuming techniques that do not allow in situ
and spatial monitoring of tissue growth. Furthermore, once the
therapy is implanted in the patient, clinicians are often unable to
monitor what is happening in the body. To tackle these barriers,
optical techniques have been developed to image and characterize
many tissue properties, fabricate tissue engineering scaffolds, and
characterize the properties of the scaffolds. Optical Techniques in
Regenerative Medicine illustrates how to use optical imaging
techniques and instrumentation for the fabrication, assessment, and
longitudinal monitoring of regenerative medicine therapies. The
book covers optical coherence tomography, acousto-optic imaging,
Raman spectroscopy, machine vision, bioluminescence, second
harmonic generation microscopy, multi-photon microscopy, coherent
anti-Stokes Raman scattering, fluorescence spectroscopy, and light
scattering spectroscopy. Each chapter provides an overview of a
particular technique, its advantages and limitations in terms of
structural and functional information, and examples of applications
in regenerative medicine. The future evolution of regenerative
medicine from academic research to viable clinical alternatives to
conventional treatments is dependent on the development of
non-destructive analytical techniques that can elucidate the stages
of tissue development both in vitro and in vivo as well as track
the fate of cells following injection. This practical book
demonstrates the vital role of optical techniques in the dynamic
field of regenerative medicine. It guides regenerative medicine
researchers toward finding the most appropriate technique for their
applications and helps biophotonics researchers see where their
technologies can be applied.
