Recent advances in optical imaging methods are now being transferred from physics laboratories to the biological field, revolutionizing how we study malaria. On pages 71–79 Cho and colleagues summarize recent progress on optical imaging techniques, ranging from in vitro visualization of malarial disease progression in infected red blood cells (iRBCs) to in vivo imaging of malaria parasites in the liver.
