Abstract: There is provided a method and a system for collecting optical data for use in time resolved optical imaging wherein excitation light of a tunable wavelength is directionally propagated to impinge on a plurality of illumination points at the surface of a region of interest in a turbid media, comprising for example a biological tissue such as that comprised in small animals or in human organs. Light re-emitted with a different wavelength from a fluorescent marker present in the tissue is collected and directionally propagated towards a detector. A filter located in a path of the light rejects photons outside a fluorescence emission spectrum of the fluorescent marker while maintaining selectivity of the re-emitted light. The detector produces time resolved optical signals useful for optical image reconstructions.

Abstract: A power adjustable and transformerless AC to DC power circuit (1) including an AC to DC power circuit (1) is revealed. The AC to DC power circuit (1) consists of a first reactance component (11), a second reactance component (12) and an AC power connected to form a loop. The second reactance component (12) is connected to a full bridge rectifier (13) for full-wave rectification of lower voltage AC to output an unstable low voltage DC. A filter capacitor (14) is connected across to the full bridge rectifier (13) to filter the unstable low voltage DC and output a stable low voltage direct current. Thus the manufacturing cost is dramatically reduced, the power is saved, and no heat is generated. Moreover, the reactance of the whole circuit is reduced so as to get high power factor. No high frequency radiation is created so that there is no radiation damage and no interference to electronic equipment.
