Use Polarized light field imaging for dental imaging and
osteography.
For dental use, a fixture could be made with a camera on
one side and light on the other, which could then be set
inside the mouth with no need for body
protection, an external room or a special technician.
The light
could be slightly moved around if it is being
blocked in any way, and the dentist could then decide how
to operate immediately with no wait.
For body testing, it would replace mammography.

Are you sure polarized light can accomplish this? |
|
| |
Polarized light is already used for imaging stresses in
transparent plastic. |
|
| |
No, it would work absolutely fine, unless you wanted to image opaque tissue, such as muscle, bone or sinew. |
|
| |
Teeth are transparent to light? |
|
| |
I think what's missing here is any sort of explanation. |

More useful for landmine detection tho. Check link |
