Three-Dimensional Geometry of Collagenous Tissues by Second Harmonic Polarimetry
Abstract Collagen is a biological macromolecule capable of second harmonic generation, allowing label-free detection in tissues; in addition, molecular orientation can be determined from the polarization dependence of the second harmonic signal. Previously we reported that in-plane orientation of co...
