Singular structure of polarization images of bile secret in diagnostics of human physiological state

Investigation of formation and interrelations of polarization singular structure and Mueller-matrix images of biological tissues and diagnostics of their cancer changes

“…The main feature of this approach is the analysis of definite (in contrast to continuous 2-D distributions) polarization states to determine the whole structure of coordinate distributions for azimuths and ellipticities of polarization. The so-called polarization singularities are commonly used as these states: [31][32][33][34][35][36][37] states with linear polarization, when the direction of rotation for the electric field vector is indefinite, the so-called L-points, and circularly polarized states, when the azimuth of polarization for the electric field vector is indefinite, the so-called C-points.…”

“…36 For example in Ref. 37, the authors found interrelations between conditions providing formation of polarization singular points and particularity of the orientation-phase structure of biological crystals present in the territorial matrix of the human tissue architectonic network. These interrelations served as a base to make statistical and fractal analyses of distribution densities for the number of singular points in BT images.…”
