SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Translational research transforms scientific discoveries arising from laboratory, clinical, or population studies into clinical applications to reduce cancer incidence, morbidity, and mortality. Optical imaging in medicine is a rapidly growing field, showing promise for delivering new low-cost, point-of-care capabilities with dramatic increases in measurement sensitivity. Unfortunately, despite all of the promises offered by optical imaging, few concepts are making it through the translational pipeline from laboratory demonstration to commercialization for clinical use.
