Introduction: The benzoporphyrine derivative verteporfin has lost its importance to the
treatment of the most frequent neovascular eye diseases. Nevertheless, it is still mandatory …

The determination of the penetration depth of laser light with different sources wavelengths
into human skin is one of the preconditions of improving the photodynamic therapy (PDT) …

Lasers are used in the minimalistic or noninvasive diagnosis and treatment of skin disorders.
Less laser light reaches the deeper skin layers in dark skin types, due to its higher epidermal …

Red and near-Infrared light is often used as a useful diagnostic and imaging probe for highly
scattering media such as biological tissues, fruits and vegetables. Part of diffusively reflected …

In any laser skin treatment, the optical properties (absorption and scattering coefficients) are
important parameters. The melanin content of skin influences the absorption of light in the …

Introduction: To improve laser hair removal (LHR) for dark skin, the fluence rate reaching the
hair follicle in LHR is important. This paper presents the results of a comparative study …

An individualised laser skin treatment may enhance the treatment and reduces risks and
side-effects. The optical properties (absorption and scattering coefficients) are important …

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 …

The accuracy of the calibration model for the single and double integrating sphere systems
are compared for a white light system. A calibration model is created from a matrix of …

Both the thickness and absorption coefficient of the epidermis influence the light
transmission through skin. Different skin phototypes were modeled and show a more than …
