Abstract Owing to their unique physical and light-transmission properties, optical fibers are of high interest in basic life sciences research, healthcare instruments, and biomedical diagnosis, therapy, and imaging. These properties enable fibers to resolve challenging issues such as collecting and transmitting low-level fluorescent light signals, delivering a wide range of optical power over a broad spectrum to a specific tissue area, and carrying out minimally invasive medical procedures. This talk addresses various fiber structures, materials, and spectral responses, and describes some biomedical applications.
