**Acknowledgements**

The research was carried out in Department of Electronics and Communication and Department of Mechanical Engineering in SRM TRP Engineering College, Trichy, Tamil Nadu, India. We express our gratitude to our management, faculty and research scholars in SRM TRP Engineering College, Trichy, Tamil Nadu, India, who provided skill and proficiency that completely helped in the development of an optimized DOT instrument for detection of sarcoma cells. We are very grateful to Radiation Oncology Centre at Trichy SRM Medical College Hospital & Research Centre, Tiruchirappalli for providing the insights on tumor detection.

#### **Conflicts of interest**

Our project promotes the social awareness on early tumor detection at cellular level. Diffuse Optical Tomography (DOT) provides harmless non-invasive detection of tumor cells. Today around 70% of people are suffering from sarcoma in soft tissue. Detection at earlier stage helps the patient for early diagnosis and prevents them from clinical pathology. We are interested to promote our review based on diffuse optical tomography instrumentation without any conflicts of interest as review article.
