  • Abstract
    We describe a method for obtaining broad wavelength (650 nm-1000 nm) quantitative optical property data with deep tissue penetration. The wavelength-dependence of absorption (μa) and scattering (μs) parameters is used to provide fundamental information on tissue biochemistry and structure
