Experimental system for measuring the full scattering profile of circular phantoms

Abstract: Optical methods for monitoring physiological tissue state are important and useful because they are non-invasive and sensitive. Experimental measurements of the full scattering profile of circular phantoms are presented. We report, for the first time, an experimental observation of a typical reflected light intensity behavior for a circular structure characterized by the isobaric point. We previously suggested a new theoretically method for measuring the full scattering profile, which is the angular distributi… Show more

“…It is assumed that the absorption and scattering characteristics of tissue change during the progression of disease [11]. The main phenomenon that we present here is the isobaric point that we reveal by the FSP [12,13]. This point is a common point for different profiles of cylindrical tissues which are characterized by different optical properties.…”

“…Detecting clinical-level changes in the parameters of bodily fluids, such as intracranial cerebrospinal fluid pressure [1], blood glucose levels [2,3], microvasculature blood flow rates [4] as well as the parameters of the blood itself [5][6][7] are of great importance and are extensively studied. Optical phantoms are used mainly for calibration and development of these optical measurement and imaging systems [8,9]. They serve as reference standards for comparison of devices and techniques as well as for studying light transport in complex, often multi-layered tissues or organs with internal vasculature [10,11].…”

“…Therefore, the range above 145° that is not included in the experiment measurements, does not interfere with our conclusions. In addition in our previous work we measured the isobaric point experimentally for phantoms with different optical parameters. Whereas the percentage of the shielding effect's influence on the light intensity is reduced in the higher angles, as we have shown in Figure , we assumed that the isobaric point can be measured also in this research if we succeed to measure the full scattering profile in the higher angles, and in accordance with the simulation results.…”
