Label-free molecular profiling, imaging, and analysis are of particular interest in cancer biology for detecting subtle biochemical changes during cancer progression and potentially during cancer treatment. Multimodal, multiphoton imaging that combines diverse molecular contrasts derived from different physical mechanisms can improve our understanding of the tumor microenvironment.
