This book explores the early-stage detection of cancer using
polarized light. It discusses the diverse properties of the light
(temporal and spatial coherence, polarization, fluorescence, etc.)
that can be used non-invasively as an optical technique for
recognizing precancerous lesions, which could become a reliable and
accurate method for cancer screening. The search for the effective
means for cancer screening is of particular interest to scientific
and medical communities, because cancer takes its toll around the
globe with no respect for age or gender. Early detection of the
disease is a key factor in increasing the survival rate and
patients' quality of life.
