New applications are made possible by emerging technologies in lasers, optoelectronic devices, fiber optics, physical and chemical sensors, and imaging - all of which are being applied to medical research, diagnostics, and therapy. The Journal of Biomedical Optics is intended to be the repository for peer-reviewed papers that utilize modern optical technology for improved health care and biomedical research. Topics suitable for the Journal of Biomedical Optics include the following: Medical and biological imaging instrumentation and techniques Noninvasive physiological monitoring Laser-tissue interactions and dosimetry Laser diagnostic and laser therapeutic methods, instruments, and systems Ophthalmic instruments, systems, implants, and clinical applications Optical biosensors Ultrasensitive detection and optical clinical chemistry Optical tomography and photon migration Endoscopic systems and applications Biospectroscopy and optoelectronic instrumentation Fiber optic sensors, instrumentation, and techniques Optical and structural microscopy Applications of optical systems and technologies to biology and medicine. The Journal will also publish brief reviews of rapidly emerging topics or articles of general interest to our scientific community, and will also consider issues of technology transfer, market projections, and ethics¡ªall of which affect the eventual use of new research capabilities or products. Short reports and letters will also be accepted.   Instructions to Authors The Journal of Biomedical Optics publishes papers on optics technology and applications related to biomedical research and health care. Manuscripts should be submitted in English, and the presentation should be as succinct as comprehension will permit. Submission is a representation that the manuscript has not been archivally published previously and is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. Manuscripts that are strictly commercial in nature will not be accepted. The authors should indicate in a footnote if a preliminary report has appeared elsewhere, and should include one copy of such a report at the time of submission for purposes of comparison. Manuscripts are peer-reviewed. Those accepted for publication are edited for conformance to the journal's style. Metric units should be used unless to do so is not feasible or would result in a serious loss of clarity. Authors should recommend an Editorial Board member to coordinate the review as well as qualified reviewers. If there is any proprietary issues associated with your paper that we should consider as your paper undergoes the review process, please explain such issues in a cover letter to the Editor-in-Chief. Electronic Submissions: Submissions for review: E-submissions help to reduce manuscript review time and are encouraged. E-submissions are accepted in PDF or PostScript format only. Attach your file to an e-mail message addressed to journals@spie.org. Include a completed manuscript submission form (RTF format). You will receive an e-mail acknowledgment of your submission (usually within 24 hours). Accepted papers: While e-submissions for review are accepted in PDF or PostScript formats only, acceptable formats for journal page composition are Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, LaTeX, or REVTeX for text, and PostScript, EPS, or TIFF for figures. Authors of accepted papers are encouraged to provide electronic files in one of these formats, along with a hard copy of the accepted paper. Electronic files may be provided on disk, as an e-mail attachment, or via FTP. Manuscripts must contain the following: Submission form (rtf): Please fill in and return. Title page: Must list the paper title; complete name(s) of the author(s) and their affiliations; complete mailing address, phone number, fax number, and Email address of the corresponding author (indicate corresponding author with an asterisk: *); an abstract, 200 words maximum; and three to six keywords. List sponsorship information in an acknowledgment section at the end of the paper. Text: Must be double-spaced (please do not use space-and-a-half), single columned, please include page numbers. A large type font is appreciated. Equations: Must be typewritten. Define characters that might be confused (such as ell/one, nu/vee, or omega/w) at first usage. References: Number references sequentially in the order in which they are cited in the text. Place references at the end of the text, typed double-spaced. Private communications or unpublished reports should be treated as references. Use the following formats for books or journal articles: Books: Author(s), book title in italic, publisher, city, and year published. (When citing a paper chapter in a book, list the chapter title in quotes, and the book title in italic, plus the page numbers.) Example: 1. D. G. Wright, "The neutrophil as a secretory organ of host defence," Chap. 13 in Advances in Host Defence Mechanisms, J. I. Gallin and A. S. Fauci, Eds., pp. 75-78, Raven Press, New York (1978). Journals: Author(s), paper title in quotes, journal name in italic (abbreviate only well-known journals), volume and issue numbers, inclusive page numbers, and year published. Example: 2. D. G. Wright and J. I. Gallin, "Functional differentiation of human neutrophil granules," J. Immunol. 119, 1068-1076 (1977). List first and middle initials, then last name for all author references. Footnotes: Use textual footnotes only when necessary to present important documentary or explanatory material whose inclusion in the text would be distracting. Illustrations not included in the electronic submission will be scanned using a digital scanner. Only high-quality artwork is acceptable. Do not send negatives, transparencies, or slides. Lettering and symbols should not be handwritten. Maximum black-white contrast in original figures is important; avoid using gray-scale in line art if possible. Mount figures using glue or wax; do not use tape on figures. Illustrations are generally reduced to column width (3-5/16 in.) or smaller. Make sure all lettering and lines are clear and dark. Number all illustrations in the order that they appear in text. All figure parts must be labeled (a), (b), etc. Authors are strongly encouraged to send electronic files for optimal quality. Continuous-tone photographs ideally should be submitted on glossy white paper, although matte prints are acceptable. Photographs that have already been screened (halftoned) will be shot as line art. Tables are typeset and should be placed at the end of the manuscript. Figure and table captions are typeset with the manuscript and should be typed double-spaced after the references. Publication charges of $45 per published page will apply to both contributed and invited special section papers. Editorial acceptance of papers is not tied to payment of publication charges, but such payments are expected. These charges help defray the cost of publishing research results and should be regarded as an essential and proper part of their research budgets. Color printing: Authors or their sponsors must bear the cost of color, including the separations and printing. Contact the Office of the Managing Editor (journals@spie.org) for information about color figure preparation and for a cost estimate. For instructions for submitting your manuscript via FTP please e-mail journals@spie.org. For hardcopy submissions please mail one original and three copies to: Office of the Managing Editor Journal of Biomedical Optics SPIE P.O.
