Optical properties of human colon tissues in the 350 – 2500 nm spectral range

Abstract: We present the optical characteristics of the mucosa and submucosa of human colon tissue. The experiments are performed in vitro using a LAMBDA 950 spectrophotometer in the 350-2500 nm spectral range. The absorption and scattering coefficients and the scattering anisotropy factor are calculated based on the measured diffuse reflectance and total and collimated transmittance spectra using the inverse Monte Carlo method.

“…[24][25][26][27] The absorption and scattering coefficients of other mucosal tissues, such as cervical tissue, colon tissue, and maxillary mucous membrane, have spectrum shapes similar to those of the gastric mucosa. [28][29][30] The absorption peaks of the gastric mucosa are wavelengths of around 420 and 550 nm, whereas those of other mucosal tissues are wavelengths of around 410, 550, and 575 nm unlike the absorption spectrum shape of the gastric mucosa. Therefore, the excitation light with the wavelength of 505 nm may be effective for deep intramucosal cancer in other mucosal tissues because the absorption peak of mucosal tissues almost coincides with that of PpIX except for the wavelength of 505 nm.…”

“…Such composition for the muscle indicates that a significant RI mismatch exists between the proteins (RI ~ 1.53) and the muscle fluids (RI ~ 1.35). Such mismatch is responsible for strong light scattering inside the muscle in the UV‐near infrared (NIR) range , which will originate significant power loss in a light beam or low contrast images obtained from small tissue depths .…”

“…To create synthetic test data we simulated multispectral image data which was subsequently filtered to generate RGB camera responses. The optical characteristics of blood and colonic submucosa (soft tissue) were compiled from [3] and [2] respectively. The synthetic phantom model comprised a homogeneous block of soft tissue with three superficial vessels containing either oxygenated or deoxygenated blood.…”
