Polarization Imaging Sensor For Cell And Tissue Imaging And Diagnostics

Based on high performance fast tunable phase retarder and novel algorithm, an innovative polarization imaging solution is proposed. It allows very fast recording the polarization images at the speed limit of a CCD. It contains no moving parts and can accommodate to most of the existing CCD cameras. The unique measurement procedure allows efficient, accurate sensing of the polarization imaging. A computer-aided diagnosis software has been developed for the proposed polarization imaging system.
