Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the optical properties of biological tissues
TL;DR: The known optical properties (absorption, scattering, total attenuation, effective attenuation and/or anisotropy coefficients) of various biological tissues at a variety of wavelengths are reviewed in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light scattering in Intralipid-10% in the wavelength range of 400-1100 nm.
Hugo J. van Staveren,Christian J. M. Moes,Jan van Marie,Scott A. Prahl,Martin J. C. van Gemert +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the absorption, scattering and anisotropy coefficients of the fat emulsion lntralipid-10% have been measured at 457.9, 514.5, 632.8, and 1064 nm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determining the optical properties of turbid media by using the adding–doubling method
TL;DR: A method is described for finding the optical properties of a slab of turbid material by using total reflection, unscattered transmission, and total transmission measurements and the intrinsic error in the method is < 3% when four quadrature points are used.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A Monte Carlo model of light propagation in tissue
TL;DR: This paper provides all the details necessary for implementation of a Monte Carlo program andVariance reduction schemes that improve the effiency of the Monte Carlo method are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Double-integrating-sphere system for measuring the optical properties of tissue
John W. Pickering,Scott A. Prahl,N. Van Wieringen,Johan F. Beek,Henricus J. C. M. Sterenborg,M. J. C. Van Gemert +5 more
TL;DR: A system synthesizes the theory of two integrating spheres and an intervening scattering sample with the inverse adding-doubling algorithm to determine the optical properties from the measurement of the light flux within each sphere and of the unscattered transmission.
