In Vivo Recognition of Vascular Structures by Near-Infrared Transillumination

  • Valentina Bello,
  • Elisabetta Bodo,
  • Sara Pizzurro and
  • Sabina Merlo

15 November 2019

Transillumination is a very well-known non-invasive optical technique that relies on the use of non-ionizing radiation to obtain information about the internal morphology of biological tissues. In a previous work, we implemented a laser-based illumin...
