A review of the optical properties of biological tissues
TLDR
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.Abstract:
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. The theoretical foundations for most experimental approaches are outlined. Relations between Kubelka-Munk parameters and transport coefficients are listed. The optical properties of aorta, liver, and muscle at 633 nm are discussed in detail. An extensive bibliography is provided. >read more

Thomas E. Matthews,Manuel A. Medina,Jason R. Maher,Howard Levinson,William J. Brown,Adam Wax +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a multispectral multiple-scattering low-coherence interferometry (ms2/LCI) was proposed to assess tissue properties based on spectroscopic analysis of multiply scattered light.

Akt phosphorylates Prohibitin 1 to mediate its mitochondrial localization and promote proliferation of bladder cancer cells
Lijuan Jiang,Pei Dong,Ziji Zhang,Cuixian Li,Yuanhua Li,Yuehua Liao,Xuehong Li,Zhang-Jin Wu,Songhe Guo,Shi-Juan Mai,Dan Xie,Zihao Liu,Fangjian Zhou +12 more
TL;DR: The findings identify the Akt/PHB signaling cascade as a novel mechanism of cancer cell proliferation and provide the scientific basis for the establishment of PHB as a new prognostic marker and treatment target for BC.

Systems, methods and computer-accessible medium which provide microscopic images of at least one anatomical structure at a particular resolution

Journal ArticleDOI
Optical properties of in vitro epidermis and their possible relationship with optical properties of in vivo skin.
TL;DR: In vivo results show that the principle of similarity is entirely valid for wavelengths greater than 600 nm and may be considered a good approximation in the 400-600 nm band, and suggest that optical characteristics of in vivo skin may be inferred from reflectance measurements.

Application of multiphoton microscopy in dermatological studies: A mini-review
TL;DR: The use of multiphoton microscopy to analyze transdermal transport of drugs, cosmetics and other agents has generated a great deal of interest, much of which is summarized in this paper.

The Optics of Human Skin
R. Rox Anderson,John A. Parrish +1 more
TL;DR: An integrated review of the transfer of optical radiation into human skin is presented, aimed at developing useful models for photomedicine.
Journal ArticleDOI
New contributions to the optics of intensely light-scattering materials.
TL;DR: In this paper, the Gurevic and Judd formulas were derived from the Kubelka-Munk differential equations, and they are exact under the same conditions as in this paper, that is, when the material is perfectly dull and when the light, is perfectly diffused or if it is parallel and hits the specimen under an angle of 60° from normal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time resolved reflectance and transmittance for the non-invasive measurement of tissue optical properties.
TL;DR: A simple model is developed, based on the diffusion approximation to radiative transfer theory, which yields analytic expressions for the pulse shape in terms of the interaction coefficients of a homogeneous slab.

The delta-Eddington approximation for radiative flux transfer
TL;DR: In this paper, the delta-Eddington approximation was used to calculate monochromatic radiative fluxes in an absorbing-scattering atmosphere, by combining a Dirac delta function and a two-term approximation, which overcomes the poor accuracy of the Eddington approximation for highly asymmetric phase functions.
