Abstract
We developed two methods to access novel nonlinear functional contrast in tissue. Here we present three-dimensional, high-resolution data of two-photon absorption, sum-frequency absorption and self-phase modulation acquired in mounted melanoma cells. This fundamentally new contrast, combined with the technique’s high sensitivity, promises to significantly advance optical methods for tissue characterization and diagnosis.
