“…The PPGI is suitable for measuring the same physiological parameters as PPG, including dynamic parameters [27,65,66]. Some examples of dynamic parameters include: capillary refill time, muscle pump efficacy, venous outflow, pulse characteristics (rate, variability, rhythm) [11,12,49], and arterial oxygen saturation.…”

The sick preterm infant monitoring is an intriguing job that medical staff in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) must deal with on a daily basis. As a standards monitoring procedure, preterm infants are monitored via sensors and electrodes that are firmly attached to their fragile and delicate skin and connected to processing monitors. However, an alternative exists in contactless imaging to record such physiological signals (we call it as Physio-Markers), detecting superficial changes and internal structures activities which can be used independently of, or aligned with, conventional monitors. Countless advantages can be gained from unobtrusive monitoring not limited to: (1) quick data generation; (2) decreasing physical and direct contact with skin, which reduces skin breakdown and minimizes risk of infection; and (3) reduction of electrodes and probes connected to clinical monitors and attached to the skin, which allows greater body surface-area for better care. This review is an attempt to build a solid ground for and to provide a clear perspective of the potential clinical applications of technologies inside NICUs that use contactless imaging modalities such as Visible Light Imaging (VLI), Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS), and Infrared Thermography (IRT).

Biomedical optical imaging techniques have been instrumental in advancing biology and medicine as they offer powerful methods to image living specimen and dynamic biological processes. Furthermore, innovations in optical imaging techniques have continuously expanded their potential in terms of imaging resolution, depth, contrast, and biomedical applications. In this chapter, the history of microscopy development starting from the inception of the microscope to the expansion into nano-scale resolution imaging with super-resolution imaging techniques is briefly outlined. Various optical imaging techniques such as optical coherence tomography, Raman imaging, diffuse optical/correlation tomography, diffuse fluorescence tomography, and photoacoustic tomography are introduced. In addition, the trade-off between imaging resolution and depth among imaging techniques, the advantages of optical imaging over non-optical imaging, and the organization of the book are discussed.
