This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing theresources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject andinvestigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source,and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed isfor the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator.Spectroscopic imaging has been extended from the previously proposed Light scattering spectroscopy imaging (LSSi) to Tri-modal spectroscopy imaging (TMSi). TMS combines LSS with Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and Intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy (IFS). TMS has been implemented in a single point clinical system, fastEEM, for studying early cancer in cervix, oral cavity, breast, artery, and esophagus. The next step is to implement TMS in wide area imaging, which is the focus of this project. Combing the three spectroscopic modalities offers more diagnostic potential without adding significant complexity to instrumentation.
