Overview

This Tutorial Text introduces key developments in light-scattering techniques for quantitative studies of tissues and optical cell ensembles. It discusses results of theoretical and experimental investigations into photon transport in tissues and describes methods for solving direct and inverse scattering problems involving different types of tissues and fluids (opaque vs. transparent). The author covers optical methods and instruments showing promise for biomedical applications. This book is intended for professionals and students.

Tuchin (optics, Saratov U., Russia) presents a tutorial primarily concerned with light scattering techniques recently developed for quantitative studies of tissues and optical cell ensembles. He discusses the results of theoretical and experimental investigations into photon transport in tissues and describes methods for solving direct and inverse scattering problems for random media with multiple scattering and quasi-ordered media with single scattering, in order to model different types of tissue behavior.
