In many measurements used for the determination of optical properties of biological tissues,
a detector with a small cone of acceptance is used. Therefore a small part of the …

The depth of light penetration is an interesting issue in various tissue optics experiments.
The measurements of remitted light distribution was shown to allow for estimation of optical …

A Monte Carlo model of light backscattered from turbid media has been used to simulate the
effects of weak localization in biological tissues. A validation technique is used that implies …

The results of this study clarify the influence of probe geometry on spectroscopic
measurements obtained from the surface of a turbid biological tissue. We show that the …

Local and superficial optical characterization of biological tissues can be achieved by
measuring the spatially resolved diffuse reflectance at small source-detector separations …

A new method for non-invasive determination of optical parameters (absorption and reduced
scattering coefficients) of biological tissues from diffuse reflectance measurements with a …

This thesis is concerned with the measurement of the scattering and absorption properties of
biological tissues using the technique of Coherent Backscatter (also known as Coherent …

We show that optical properties of dense biological tissues can be determined from
backscattered power curves measured by a low-coherence reflectometer. Our measurement …

Precise knowledge of the optical coefficients of a turbid biological medium is fundamental to
the analysis of many optical therapeutic and diagnostic techniques that can now be found in …

A model of the calculation of the diffuse reflection of the living tissue based on Kubelka-
Munk theory is presented. The equation describing the relationship between backscattering …
