Uneven illumination affects all images acquired by optical microscopes, especially large, multicolour and nonlinear measurements. Although removal is possible with various algorithms, evaluating raw and processed images is challenging due to the lack of established workflows for image quality assessment.…
Cerumen, commonly known as earwax, is a complex mixture composed of secretions from ceruminous glands. These secretions are heterogeneous mixtures mainly composed of lipids and proteins. Despite its prevalence, the potential diagnostic value of cerumen remains largely unexplored. Here, we present an…

Broadband Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering (BCARS) is a valuable spectroscopic imaging tool for visualizing cellular structures and lipid distributions in biomedical applications. However, the inevitable biological changes in the samples (cells/tissues/lipids) introduce spectral variations in BCARS…
