In studies involving the propagation of light in tissues, phantoms consisting of separate
scattering and absorbing components are often used. The optical properties of phospholipid …

The optical properties of India ink, an absorber often used in preparation of tissue simulating
phantoms, have been investigated at visible and near infrared wavelengths. The extinction …

Intralipid is a fat emulsion which is widely used as the basis of phantom materials for the
investigation of the optical properties of tissues, a subject of recent increased interest due to …

Intralipid™ is an intravenous nutrient consisting of an emulsion of phospholipid micelles and
water. Because Intralipid is turbid and has no strong absorption bands in the visible region …

A solid tissue phantom made of agar, Intralipid and black ink is described and characterized.
The preparation procedure is fast and easily implemented with standard laboratory …

We have developed diffusely scattering solid phantoms with optical (scattering) properties
amenable to theoretical calculations. Monodisperse quartz glass spheres were used as …

The rapid development of new optical imaging techniques is dependent on the availability of
low-cost and easily reproducible standards for technique validation. This work describes a …

Using the collimated output beam from a Helium-Neon laser, operating at 632.8 nm,
transmission intensities through various thicknesses and concentrations of homogenised …

Optical spectroscopy, imaging, and therapy tissue phantoms must have the scattering and
absorption properties that are characteristic of human tissues, and over the past few …

We have developed a method to quickly determine tissue optical properties (absorption
coefficient μ a and transport scattering coefficient μ's) by measuring the ratio of light fluence …
