Show abstract
This study explores the potential of quantitative autofluorescence imaging (AFI) as an objective tool for monitoring the health of oral mucosal tissue. Our approach involves acquiring spectroradiometric measurements of tissue fluorescence and utilizing a model to understand the fluorophores influencing these measurements, including the impact of blood attenuation. We acquired fluorescence measurements from the dorsal tongue and inner lip of healthy human volunteers, subsequently fitting the model to these data to estimate individual fluorophore contributions and the optical density of the blood. Our dataset and model, which are freely shared in an open repository, aim to advance the development of quantitative, non-invasive diagnostic imaging systems for monitoring oral health, ultimately facilitating the detection and characterization of oral mucosal tissue abnormalities.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
