lncRNAs (long non-coding RNAs) are heterogeneous RNA molecules that modulate various cellular processes, such as proliferation, differentiation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis, via different mechanisms. An increasing amount of research indicates that abnormal expression of lncRNA influences the development of drug resistance as well as the genesis and advancement of cancer, including melanoma. Furthermore, they are attractive biomarkers for non-invasive cancer diagnostics due to their strongly modulated expression and improved tissue and disease specificity.

Photoacoustic imaging has emerged as a promising modality for medical imaging since its introduction. Photoacoustic microscopy (PAM), which is based on the photoacoustic effect, combines the advantages of both optical and acoustic imaging modalities. PAM facilitates high-sensitivity, high-resolution, non-contact, and non-invasive imaging by employing optical absorption as its primary contrast mechanism.

Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age, characterized by the abnormal presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus. Although endometriosis was first described over 300 years ago, its underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood, and accurate, prompt diagnosis continues to be challenging. Currently, there is a lack of effective, non-invasive diagnostic methods, and available treatments often come with significant side effects and high recurrence rates.
