1. Imaging for medicine

Imaging is used in medicine for a wide range of pathologies, and this trend is only becoming more pronounced as the need for increasingly precise diagnoses grows. Various methods exist today, but they do not all have the same level of spatial resolution, specificity, depth of penetration into the human body, or invasiveness. Their implementation is generally costly, often cumbersome, and it is not uncommon to have to carry out several types of examination, given the specificity of each technique.

With this in mind, multimodal systems (combining at least two complementary imaging methods) are being set up in hospitals to better assess pathology. For the physician, light is a natural source of observation of a biological environment, but this is impractical when the information is located deep in the tissue, due to light absorption and diffusion phenomena....
