Methodology for examining polarized light interactions with tissues and tissuelike media in the exact backscattering direction
Abstract
The properties of polarized light emerging from turbid media in the exact backscattering direction are studied by modulating the incident light polarization state and isolating the synchronous signal with lock-in amplifier detection. The results are reported for polystyrene microsphere suspensions in distilled water, with and without glucose, and for both ex vivo and in vivo biological tissues. A new theoretical formulation based on Mueller …
