Abstract

Systems for and methods for detecting samples and other compounds of interest are disclosed herein. The system can include an illumination source that is configured to emit light in a variety of different wavelength bands, an optical filter, a camera chip, and an optical path configured to direct the light emitted by the first illumination source at a target and direct the light reflected from the target to the at least one camera chip. The illumination source and the optical filter are transitionable between a first tuning state corresponding to a target tissue and a second tuning state corresponding to a background tissue. The system can be configured to record images at the different tuning states and generate a score image corresponding to the target tissue based on the recorded images.
