We propose the use of a retrieval procedure for time-resolved near-infrared tissue
spectroscopy based on the'optimal estimation'method. The aim of this retrieval method is to …

To facilitate the design and optimization of instruments for time-domain optical brain imaging
within the European project" nEUROPt", the performance of various instruments is assessed …

Optical spectroscopy has been used as a supplement to conventional techniques for
analyzing and diagnosing cancer in many human organs. Because ocular tumors may be …

We present a fast and accurate method for real-time determination of the absorption
coefficient, the scattering coefficient, and the anisotropy factor of thin turbid samples by using …

This study was carried out to investigate the feasibility of an original polarized hyperspectral
imaging setup in the spectral range of 400–1100 nm for enhancement of absorbance signal …

The interaction of light with biological materials, such as fruits and vegetables, is a complex
process which involves both absorption, and scattering events at different scales. Measuring …

Tissue simulators, the so-called tissue phantoms, have been used to mimic human tissue for
spectroscopic applications. Phantoms' design depends on patterning the optical properties …

We study the total bulk reflectance of a turbid medium with large (as compared to the light
wavelength) inhomogeneities at grazing angles of light incidence. To model highly forward …

Backscattered light was used to reconstruct cross-sectional images of absorption
distributions in diffuse media. For efficient and accurate reconstruction, the inverse problem …

The first derivative of the pseudo-absorption spectrum of a water-loaded cotton wool (water–
CW) phantom, which mimics muscle tissues, was used to determine the light path length in …
