Accuracy of Noninvasive in vivo Measurements of Photosensitizer Uptake Based on a Diffusion Model of Reflectance Spectroscopy
Abstract
This study compares the photosensitizer concentration measured noninvasively in vivo by diffuse reflectance spectroscopy with the results of postmortem tissue solubilization and fluorometric assay. The reflectance spectrometer consists of a fiber optic surface probe, spectrometer and charge-coupled device (CCD) array detector. The surface probe has eight detection fibers separated from the light source fiber by distances ranging from 0.85 to 10 …
