Description
Laser Polarization and Autofluorescence Imaging for Biomedical and Clinical Applications addresses the cutting-edge research area of laser and autofluorescence polarimetric visualization combined with sophisticated multi-algorithm digital analysis. The book's content spans ten detailed sections, covering fundamental theories of Mueller-matrix polarimetry, azimuth-invariant mapping methods, advanced Fourier and wavelet transformations, singular analysis, laser-induced autofluorescence polarimetry, and biomedical system architectures. It culminates with clinical application examples demonstrating early diagnostics of malignancies, type 2 diabetes, albuminuria, cholelithiasis, septic conditions, and forensic determinations such as cause and time of death.
This reference offers significant benefits to researchers, biomedical engineers, and medical data analysts by delivering a pioneering synthesis of the latest theoretical concepts and multifunctional digital imaging methods. It equips the audience with objective, highly sensitive digital markers essential for accurate, rapid preclinical diagnostics, thereby advancing precision medicine and evidence-based clinical practice in biomedical optics.

Person
Alexander Ushenko is a Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences and Professor affiliated with the Taizhou Institute of Zhejiang University, China, and Yuriy Fedcovych Chernivtsi National University, Ukraine. He has authored over 300 international SCOPUS and Web of Science publications in the field of polarization biomedical optics, with a Hirsch index of 42 and more than 6000 citations. His main scientific contributions include the development of an original theory on the interaction of polarized laser radiation with optically anisotropic polycrystalline architectonics of biological tissues and fluids across various morphological structures and physiological states. Additionally, he has advanced fundamental principles of Jones- and Mueller-matrix visualization methods to analyze linear and circular birefringence and dichroism patterns in biological tissues and fluids. Professor Ushenko also specializes in multiparameter digital analysis of reconstructed biomedical images, employing statistical, fractal, wavelet, and singular techniques.
