Brief summary

The purpose of this pilot study is to develop the methodology for an innovative subsurface imaging technology that was designed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. It will allow the non-invasive analysis and imaging of tissues and chemical distributions in the body at an imaging depth of up to 1 centimeter with spatial resolution on the order of 1 mm.

Detailed description

This is a pilot, feasibility study to determine if the subsurface imaging technology warrants advancement to a larger clinical trial.
