Synopsis:

The course covers optics theory and its application in engineering, biology, and medicine. It describes properties of optical radiation from a view of photon, electromagnetic and geometric theory. It is focused also on sources and detectors of optical radiation, and basic properties of optical instruments. Special part of the course is dedicated to modern optical instruments and methods, which are used in biology and medicine. Present trends of development of optical methods in biomedicine are also discussed.
