Abstract

Women’s health problems ranging from pregnancy complications to cancer do not have sufficient physiologic understanding nor clinical interventions, resulting in poor outcomes. Light-based technologies can be specifically designed to gain new insights into women’s health. They can be used at the point of care, be non-contact and re-usable, provide objective and real-time results, generate label-free or exogenous molecular contrast, and have significantly lower costs than most non-optical modalities. Successful application of optical technologies for furthering our understanding of cervical change during pregnancy and improving breast cancer surgery outcomes and access will be presented.
