the ability to decompose an image into constituent "endmembers" based on the spectral profile recorded in each pixel
recording an image in which every point in space (pixel) is associated with information relating to the wavelengths (colours)
the study of the metabolism of free radicals in the cell
vibrational spectroscopy technique with chemical specificity
models that enable study of a disease without testing on humans
the percentage of oxygen binding sites of haemoglobin that are bound to oxygen
an excess of free radicals relative to antioxidants in cells
a technique that uses ultrasound generated by laser light for imaging
methodology used commonly to extract key information from large spectral data sets
images that allow resolution of data from multiple sources, for example, multiple different fluorophores
enables spectroscopy to be performed in 2D on a single imaging sensor
the change from a pre-neoplastic cell to one that has a malignant phenotype, for example, uncontrolled proliferation
a condition resulting from insufficient levels of oxygen
contains one or more unpaired electrons
alignment of light waves in both space and time
enables growth of mammalian cells outside of the body
any substance that delays, prevents or removes oxidative damage
drugs that block blood vessel growth
the formation of new blood vessels
metabolic changes commonly observed in tumours, for example, the Warburg effect
