"Optical equipment, like the microscope, is not directly used to study live humans or animals because light can't go through living tissue. But now that we can make tissue transparent, it will ...

The technique creates a fresh opportunity for researchers to understand what is going on under ... The key to tissue clearing lies in changing the way light passes through tissue.

“Optical equipment, like the microscope, is not directly used to study live humans or animals because light can’t go through living tissue," Ou said. "But now that we can make tissue ...

A light particle, or photon, traveling through tissue under normal circumstances ... that amount of anything into a live organism is going to have some substantial effect,” he says.

we demonstrate fast directional electrical communication through the 3D printed material under stringent light-activated control. The conductive pathway formed in the 3D-printed tissue is a functional ...

And now, thanks to this light-sensitive tissue, it can do something powerful—make heart cells beat on command. Most importantly, this technique doesn’t require any genetic changes to the cells.

Using a specialized MRI sensor, MIT researchers have shown that they can detect light deep within tissues such as the brain. Imaging light in deep tissues is extremely difficult because as light ...

A new device that uses light ... for tissue imaging not only in tissue engineering, but also in cancer applications and autoimmune diseases. For the first time Raman is not only a primarily surface ...

Imagine there are 100 photons of light going through a finger ... with very weak optical signals that have to transverse through tissues with lots of [other] elements that absorb and scatter ...
