Biophotonics
is the science of generating and harnessing light to
image, detect and manipulate biological materials.
Biophotonics is used in
medicine to study tissue and blood at the macro
(large-scale) and micro (very small scale) organism
level to detect, diagnose and treat diseases in a way
that are non-invasive to the body. (Courtesy of

The LuViva® Advanced
Cervical Scan uses light to
detect both physical and chemical changes in tissue that
may be markers of cervical disease.

device. Limited by federal law to investigational use. The availability
of any product in the U.S. developed from these technologies is
