With a phase microscope the phase shift of cells from type L 929 fibroblast and mitochondria
from liver cells was measured. Compared to the total phase shift caused by the cell relative …

The absorption coefficient μ a, scattering coefficient μ s, and anisotropy factor g of diluted
and undiluted human blood (hematocrit 0.84 and 42.1%) are determined under flow …

Abstract Background and Objective Laser induced thermotherapy (LITT) is a promising
treatment for irresectable liver tumors. For predicting the effects of laser applications and …

For several years laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy (LIF) has been a valuable tool in
medical diagnosis detecting the relative distribution of endogenous chromophors [1–15]. In …

The optical properties (absorption and scattering coefficients and the scattering anisotropy
factor) were measured in vitro for cartilage, liver, lung, muscle, myocardium, skin, and …

The optical parameters absorption coefficient, scattering coefficient, and the anisotropy
factor of platelets (PLTs) suspended in plasma and cell-free blood plasma are determined …

Abstract Background and Objective Knowledge about optical parameters and the resultant
light distribution in laser‐treated tissue is important for predicting the effects of laser‐induced …

In this paper, we describe a method used to determine the optical properties, namely, the
effective scattering and absorption coefficients, employing an optimized three-dimensional …

The absorption coefficient, scattering coefficient, and effective scattering phase function of
human red blood cells (RBCs) in saline solution were determined for eight different …

A time-dependent mathematical model for the heat transfer in laser-induced hyperthermia
has been developed. The model calculates the temperature distribution in surface irradiated …
