We report the use of steady-state diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (SSDRS) to measure the
near-infrared absorption spectrum of liquid phantoms containing human erythrocytes in …

We present the results of diffuse reflectance measurements made on the surface of a tissue-
simulating phantom containing intact human erythrocytes. These measurements indicate …

Near-infrared spectroscopy or imaging has been extensively applied to various biomedical
applications since it can detect the concentrations of oxyhaemoglobin (HbO 2) …

Visible and near-infrared transmittance (T) spectra of unlysed blood samples were obtained
with an NIRSystems Model 6500 spectrophotometer modified for an open cell and a vertical …

Recent work aimed at providing an absolute measurement of tissue haemoglobin saturation
and a new instrument development, the spatially resolved spectrometer (SRS), are …

In near–infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) of tissue, light attenuation is due to:(i) absorption from
chromophores of fixed concentration,(ii) absorption from chromophores of variable …

Describes a simple technique for noninvasively determining the absolute concentration of
deoxyhaemoglobin (Hb) in living tissue using near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The …

A method is described for measuring optical properties and deriving chromophore
concentrations from diffuse reflection measurements at the surface of a turbid medium. The …

A multispectral direct chromophore and scattering reconstruction technique has been
implemented for near-infrared frequency-domain tomography in recovering images of total …

We present a method for the analysis of steady state diffuse reflectance spectra obtained
