To describe principles of optical imaging including chemistry and physics of fluorescence, limitations/advantages of optical imaging compared to metabolic and anatomic imaging. Describe hardware adapted for small animal imaging and for clinical applications: endoscopes and operative microscopes.
Geometric Optics: Theory and Design of Astronomical Optical Systems Using Mathematica
This book—unique in the literature—provides readers with the mathematical background needed to design many of the optical combinations that are used in astronomical telescopes and cameras. The results presented in the work were obtained by using a different approach to third-order aberration theory as well as the extensive use of the software package Mathematica®.
