(a). QSI instrumentation principle. Green beams are illumination and red beams are collection. Optics delivers a spot of light to the tissue surface. The spot is similar in diameter to that of an optical fiber contact probe. The area from which reflectance and fluorescence are collected is also similar. (b) Block diagram of the QSI instrument. (c) Schematic diagram of the optical head.
