Abstract:A non-invasive hand-held optical probe for imaging of biological tissues consists of nine units. Each unit is equipped with one red LED and three photodetectors placed at distances 7, 12, and 17 mm from the source along the x-axis. For testing, three phantoms of paraffin wax are embedded with solid inhomogeneity placed at various depths. Human biological tissues consisting of right index finger, four fingers of the same hand, and a part of the forearm below elbow joint are used. The data on optical backscatter… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
