Abstract
We have developed Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) microscope tools to selectively and specifically probe all levels of collagen architecture organization in human ovarian cancer and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. We classified normal and diseased tissues in both diseases based on the respective fiber morphology using a novel form of 3D machine learning. We also developed polarization sensitive SHG methods to extract collagen macro/supramolecular structural aspects and found significant differences between normal and healthy tissues. We also present a new theoretical approach to phasematching in biological tissues as an additional characterization method. Collectively, this structural information provides insight into disease etiology.
