Purpose
Biophotonics is about generating and harnessing light for comprehending the functioning of cells and tissues. Due to the advantage of light such as noninvasive penetration into tissue, nonionizing, and real-time and high-resolution optical imaging, it is used in medicine to improve diagnosis, therapy and follow-up care, setting the trend towards point-of-care (POC) and personalized medicine. The global biophotonics market was valued at $34.29 billion in 2015, and estimated to reach $91.31 billion by 2024. This robust growth is attributed to the increasing aging population and demand for health care improvements. New device for cancer detection is one of the most important areas of biophotonics.
