Optical imaging methods play a key role in many fields of science, engineering and in a huge number of everyday applications. FOI 2013 focuses on the most relevant and most challenging of these techniques, with the purpose of advancing the state-of-the-art in domains where the fundamental limits of imaging performance have not yet been achieved.
