Scope
Recent growth in the use of optics technology for biomedical research
and health care has been explosive. New applications are made possible
by emerging technologies in lasers, optoelectronic devices, fiber
optics, physical and chemical sensors, and imaging - all of which
are being applied to medical research, diagnostics, and therapy.
The Journal of Biomedical Optics is intended to be the repository
for peer-reviewed papers that utilize modern optical technology
for improved health care and biomedical research. Topics suitable
for the Journal of Biomedical Optics include the following:
- Medical and biological imaging instrumentation and techniques
- Noninvasive physiological monitoring
- Laser-tissue interactions and dosimetry
- Laser diagnostic and laser therapeutic methods, instruments,
and systems
- Ophthalmic instruments, systems, implants, and clinical applications
- Optical biosensors
- Ultrasensitive detection and optical clinical chemistry
- Optical tomography and photon migration
- Endoscopic systems and applications
- Biospectroscopy and optoelectronic instrumentation
- Fiber optic sensors, instrumentation, and techniques
- Optical and structural microscopy
- Applications of optical systems and technologies to biology
and medicine.
The Journal will also publish brief reviews of rapidly emerging
topics or articles of general interest to our scientific community,
and will also consider issues of technology transfer, market projections,
and ethics-all of which affect the eventual use of new research capabilities
or products. Short reports and letters will also be accepted.
The Journal of Biomedical Optics is included in the U.S. National
Library of Medicine's Index
Medicus/MEDLINE.
