Researchers at Caltech make progress in medical imaging by adapting astronomical optics. A reflector shapes light waves to counterbalance distortion. Researchers in Caltech’s Andrew and Peggy Cherng ...

The CLARITY technique is a technique used to clear tissues of lipids and enable immunolabelling of whole, intact organs. This has advantages over traditional methods, which have always depended upon ...

An exciting prospect in modern optics is to exploit “patterns of light”, how the light looks in its many degrees of freedom, often referred to as structured light. Each pattern could form an encoding ...

The novel distortion matrix approach enables detection of micro-calcifications in breast cancer. These precursors of breast cancer are impossible to detect in the conventional ultrasound image.
