Abstract:
The optical characteristics (refractive index and absorption coefficient) of the biotissue being simulated (epidermis, upper layer of derma, lower layer of derma, and blood corpuscles) are obtained using the mathematical model constructed taking into account the fibrillar structure. The quantitative estimates based on this model can be used for predicting the variations in the optical properties of biological tissue samples, which are associated with various biophysical and biochemical processes occurring in it.
