Diabetes is an insidious disease that afflicts millions of people worldwide and typically
requires the person with the disease to monitor their blood sugar level via finger or forearm …

In this work, the analytical discrete-ordinates (ADO) method is applied to radiative transfer
with polarization in a multi-layer dielectric medium subject to Fresnel boundary/interface …

Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a non-invasive optical technique used in detecting blood
volume changes in vascular tissue. In recent years, photoplethysmography has generated …

The extension of the photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS) in multiple scattering regime, so-
called diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS) was employed to the study of blood samples …

Visible/near-infrared spectroscopy is a well-established method to measure optical
properties of tissues, assuming that a light propagation model can be used to recover …

Previous research in our laboratory has shown that the polarization component of the
electrical field plays an important role on the healing process of inflammatory lesions …

A method, based on the optoacoustic effect for determination of the spatial distribution of the
light intensity in turbid media and of the optical characteristics of such media was proposed …

In this paper we introduce a novel technique for estimating surface normals from the four
Stokes polarization parameters of specularly reflected light under a single spherical incident …

The optical characteristics of the mucous membrane from the human maxillary sinus are
studied experimentally. The experiments were carried out in vitro in the spectral range 350 …

Objectives. Laser surgery requires feedback to avoid the accidental destruction of critically
important tissues. It was the aim of the authors to identify different tissue types in vivo by …
