Abstract
Spatial frequency domain (SFD) imaging offers a wide-field modality to effectively characterize the optical properties (absorption and scattering coefficients), and furthermore to calculate the chromophore concentrations from multiwavelength measurements, in biological tissues. Previous SFD imaging systems mostly capture the two-dimensional reflected light using an expensive charge-coupled device camera that requires switching between the multi-wavelength collections. With recent proliferation in low-cost and technology we present herein a highly-sensitive novel single-pixel SFD imaging system for simultaneous and acquisition of multi-wavelength images. In the approach, three LED-sources at 455-nm, 530-nm and 660-nm wavelengths are temporally modulated at different frequencies, and all focused to the first digital micromirror device (DMD) to generate a wide-field sinusoidal illumination on tissues. The reflected signal is spatially integrated by the second DMD that is coded according to the transform matrix, and fed into a lock-in photoncounting module and temporally demodulated to extract the signals at each wavelength. The SFD images at each wavelength are recovered by single-pixel imaging algorithm, respectively, and then used to calculate the modulation transfer function for extraction of the optical properties. The proposed system is experimentally validated on phantoms, demonstrating the system stability, measurement linearity, negligible inter-wavelength crosstalk, and recovery effectiveness.
