Abstract: ObjectivesAssess the suitability of the technique for objective monitoring of laser tattoo removal by an extended treatment protocol.Materials and MethodsOne half of the tattoo in the first volunteer was treated with nanosecond and the other half with picosecond laser pulses at 1064 nm. In the second subject, four test areas were treated repeatedly using different radiant exposures from 1.5 to 6 J/cm2. Measurements of diffuse reflectance spectra and photothermal radiometric transients were performed 4–20 weeks… Show more

“…In our earlier studies, the described approach allowed assessment of the contents of skin chromophores (melanin, oxy- and deoxyhemoglobin, bilirubin, etc.) as well as the thicknesses and scattering properties of both epidermis and dermis [ 22 25 ]. At the same time, the described approach provides the values of the fractional contents of the epidermal melanin and dermal blood.…”
