Extensive research in the area of optical sensing for medical diagnostics requires
development of tissue phantoms with optical properties similar to those of living human …

The rapid development of new optical imaging techniques is dependent on the availability of
low-cost and easily reproducible standards for technique validation. This work describes a …

Optical methods for monitoring physiological tissue state are important and useful because
they are non-invasive and sensitive. Experimental measurements of the full scattering profile …

The in-vivo optical properties of the human head are investigated in the 600–1100 nm range
on different subjects using continuous wave and time domain diffuse optical spectroscopy …

We present the development of a continuous-wave method of quantifying the optical
properties of a two-layered model of the human head using a broadband spectral approach …

We introduce new realistic three-dimensional tissue phantoms which can help to understand
the optical properties of human epithelium as well as the optical signatures associated with …

Optical phantoms are used in the development of various imaging systems. For certain
applications, the development of thin phantoms that simulate the physical size and optical …

Three-dimensional (3D) printing offers the promise of fabricating optical phantoms with
arbitrary geometry, but commercially available thermoplastics provide only a small range of …

Medical laser applications require knowledge about the optical properties of target tissue. In
this study, the optical properties of selected native and coagulated human brain structures …

Vast research has been carried out to fabricate tissue-mimicking phantoms, due to their
convenient use and ease of storage, to assess and validate the performance of optical …
