Abstract

The technology behind optically-driven terahertz (THz) system is now well developed and commercial applications of this new technology are now beginning to emerge. The terahertz frequency range (0.1 to 10 THz) covers far infrared wavelengths. Terahertz light has the advantages that it is non-ionizing and is not highly scattered like visible and near-infrared light. Terahertz pulsed imaging (TPI) is a reflection imaging method that has been used successfully in the past for non-medical applications. More recently, a portable TPI has been used to image a variety of human tissues, like teeth, skin and breast.

太赫兹成像的生物医学应用
光驱动太赫兹(THz)系统背后的技术现在已经很发达,这种新技术的商业应用现在开始出现。太赫兹频率范围(0.1到10太赫兹)涵盖了远红外波长。太赫兹光的优点是它是非电离的,不像可见光和近红外光那样高度散射。太赫兹脉冲成像(TPI)是一种反射成像方法,过去已成功地用于非医疗应用。最近,便携式TPI已被用于各种人体组织成像,如牙齿、皮肤和乳房。
