A distinctive feature of this review is a critical analysis of methods and results of
measurements of the optical properties of tissues in a wide spectral range from deep UV to …

The knowledge of the optical properties of biological tissues in a wide spectral range is
highly important for the development of noninvasive diagnostic or treatment procedures. The …

In this study, we used machine learning techniques to reconstruct the wavelength
dependence of the absorption coefficient of human normal and pathological colorectal …

We propose a one-dimensional photonic crystal that can be used to probe pathological
tissues and identify the presence of human liver cancer cells. The identification of cancerous …

The pancreas is a highly important organ, since it produces insulin and prevents the
occurrence of diabetes. Although rare, pancreatic cancer is highly lethal, with a small life …

The evaluation of the optical clearing mechanisms in tissues provides information about the
efficiency of the clearing treatment. One of such mechanisms is the refractive index …

This chapter presents methods for measuring the refractive index (RI) of biological tissues
and blood and their components in a wide range of wavelengths. The advantages and …

The estimation of the spectral absorption coefficient of biological tissues provides valuable
information that can be used in diagnostic procedures. Such estimation can be made using …

Precise knowledge about light propagation in biological tissues is necessary for accurate
diagnostics and effective therapies utilizing optical technologies. In the current paper, the …

Cancer diseases are of major concern due to the lack of efficient early-stage diagnostic and
effective therapeutic methods. Cancer detection is traditionally done at a later stage of …
