“…Assoc. Prof. Ekaterina Borisova was always ready to embrace new ideas and scientific horizons, for instance, by adopting multimodal techniques, including multispectral, fluorescence lifetime and Raman imaging/spectroscopy for skin diagnosis/analysis [37][38] and autofluorescence spectroscopy of cutaneous neoplasia under different spectral domain excitation wavelengths [39].…”

“…In summer 2019 two researchers from Riga (I. Lihacova and A. Lihacev) visited the colleagues in Sofia, and Katia paid a return visit to Riga in frame of this project in November 2019. Soon after that her student Deyan Ivanov visited Riga where joint measurements of the ex vivo skin lesion samples (brought from Sofia) were taken; the results were reported in the SPIE BIOS'2020 conference [37]. After the Covid-19 pandemic started in March 2020, only virtual meetings were allowed; two of them included the Ekaterina's invited talk at the Biophotonics Riga -2020 conference in August [33] and the invited talk of J. Spigulis at the ICSQE-21 conference [105] in September, 2020.…”

Regretfully, because of her sudden demise, Assoc. Prof. Ekaterina Borisova is no longer amongst us. COVID-19 pulled away a brilliant scientist during the peak of her scientific career (see Fig. 1). All authors would like to express deepest condolences and sincere support to her family, friends, relatives and colleagues! We, therefore, rightfully commemorate her dedicated and devoted contribution to biophotonics, her readiness to always support, help, motivate and inspire all her colleagues and collaborators.

Experimental validation of a previously reported depolarizing Mueller matrix model is crucial to understanding the light-tissue interactions and the morphological alterations originating in malignant tissue zones in terms of their optical properties. This manuscript is a continuation of a previously reported case study, where a theoretical model was introduced with an additional Monte Carlo simulation. The main aim of this study is to empirically validate both theory and modelling. Once extracted from an experimental Mueller matrix via symmetric decomposition, the polarimetric quantities were compared with the corresponding parameters previously determined from polarized Monte Carlo simulations. Our results were obtained from an ex vivo colon sample and indicate a potential capability to provide supplementary polarimetric data to physicians and the gold standard histopathology analysis.
