Optical imaging and tomography in tissues can facilitate the quantitative study of several
important chromophores and fluorophores. Several theoretical models have been validated …

The diffusion approximation to the photon transport equation is the simplest model for
photon migration. The applicability of the diffusion approximation, however, is limited. For …

We present a new data reduction algorithm to quantify absorption and reduced scattering
coefficients of living tissues. The method requires source-detector separations larger than 2 …

The absorption and the reduced scattering coefficients of living tissues were obtained from
measurements of time-resolved reflectance at near-IR wavelengths. The inversion …

Measurement of tissue optical absorption and (transport) reduced scattering coefficients
(μ_a and μ_s', respectively) is fundamental to many applications of light in medicine and …

Our research is aimed at the development of a frequency-domain instrument for conducting
non-invasive, real-time, near-infrared, optical tomography of tissue in vivo. Our goal is to …

We have investigated the effect of an absorbing object on the time-course and the migration
paths of photons within a highly scattering cylindrical phantom. Experimentally, we injected …

Measurement of light transport in tissue has the potential to be an inexpensive and practical
tool for non-invasive tissue diagnosis in medical applications because it can provide …

We reconstruct images of the absorption and the scattering coefficients for diffuse optical
tomography using five different models for light propagation in tissues:(1) the radiative …

The noninvasive measurement of variations in absorption that are due to changes in
concentrations of biochemically relevant compounds in tissue is important in many clinical …
