Abstract
Due to the strong scattering in biological bodies such as mammalian tissues, the optical imaging of internal structure has been difficult. To suppress the effect of scattering, we have developed a technique that makes use of near-axis scattered light (NASL). However, little has been known on the behavior of the NASL in a scattering medium. In this study, the feasibility of the detection of the NASL was tested using a time-resolved measurement technique.
