| Abstract | We describe a new fluorescence imaging device for clinical cancer photodetection in hollow organs in which the tumor/normal tissue contrast is derived from the fluorescence lifetime of endogenous or exogenous fluorochromes. This fluorescence lifetime contrast gives information about the physicochemical properties of the environment which are different between normal and certain diseased tissues. The excitation light from a CW laser is modulated in amplitude at a radio frequency by an electrooptical modulator and delivered by an optical fiber through an endoscope to the hollow organ. The image of the tissue collected by the endoscope is separated in two spectral windows, one being the backscattered excitation light and the other the fluorescence of the fluorochrome. Each image is then focused on the photocathode of image intensifiers (II) whose optical gain is modulated at the same frequency as the excitation intensity, resulting in homodyne phase-sensitive images. By acquiring stationary phase-sensitive frames at different phases between the excitation and the detection, it is possible to calculate in quasi-real time the apparent fluorescence lifetime of the corresponding tissue region for each pixel. A result obtained by investigating the endogenous fluorochromes present in the mucous membrane of an excised human bladder is presented to illustrate this method and most of the optical parameters which are of major importance for this photodetection modality have been evaluated. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
