Time-resolved diffused optical characterization of key tissue constituents of human bony prominence locations

Abstract: We report a broadband time-resolved characterization of selected bony prominence locations of the human body. A clinical study was performed at six different bony prominence locations of 53 subjects. A portable broadband timeresolved system equipped with pulse drift and distortion compensation strategy was used for absorption and scattering measurements. Key tissue constituents were quantified as a pilot step towards non-invasive optical assessment of bone pathologies.

“…Subject 1007 is the only subject with a tumor in the muscle. Literature values for water concentrations in tissue vary greatly (Taroni et al, 2007;Sekar et al, 2015b;Pifferi et al, 2004) but with the exception of subjects 1004 and 1007, the water concentrations in this study are similar to those previously reported for other bony locations on the limbs.…”

“…Another study used a diffuse optical time resolved transmittance system to measure chromophores for the proximal femur (trochanter), distal and proximal radius, distal and proximal ulna, and calcaneous (Sekar et al, 2015b). Once again, chromophore measurements are very different, even when comparing the proximal femur to the distal femur.…”

“…Works by Taroni et al 11 and Provenzano et al 12 showed that collagen density in breast tissues correlates with breast density and accordingly with the risk of breast cancer. Few studies on the noninvasive characterization of collagen in bone tissues 13,14 revealed its future prospects in osteology to complement existing technologies, such as dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), for bone pathological diagnosis. Enhanced contrast of collagen absorption was reported using photoacoustics at SWIR wavelengths as compared to the near-infrared region.…”
