چکیده

We report on the scattering properties of oxygenated and deoxygenated whole blood from 250 to 1000 nm. We determine the complex refractive index of oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin using a Kramers-Kronig analysis and optical coherence tomography measurements. Combining these data with Mie theory, the scattering properties are calculated. The strong oxygen saturation dependent scattering effects should be taken into account in the data analysis of optical oxymetry.

Toward assessment of blood oxygen saturation by spectroscopic optical coherence tomography.

The use of spectroscopic optical coherence tomography to assess hemoglobin oxygen saturation of whole blood is investigated. We propose to use the differential attenuation coefficient to determine the degree of saturation. Our data show qualitative agreement between the measured differential attenuation coefficients as a function of saturation and predictions based on the oxygen-saturation-depe...

Optical Properties of Circulating Human Blood in the Wavelength Range 400-2500 nm.

Knowledge about the optical properties μa,μs, and g of human blood plays an important role for many diagnostic and therapeutic applications in laser medicine and medical diagnostics. They strongly depend on physiological parameters such as oxygen saturation, osmolarity, flow conditions, haematocrit, etc. The integrating sphere technique and inverse Monte Carlo simulations were applied to measur...

A simple algorithm for in vivo ocular fundus oximetry compensating for non-haemoglobin absorption and scattering.

An algorithm is introduced for the compensation of the influence of non-haemoglobin absorption as well as tissue scattering on blood spectra used in optical oximetry at the ocular fundus. The in vivo measured spectra were corrected by a linear transformation in order to match the reference spectra of fully oxygenated and reduced blood, respectively, at three isosbestic points (522 nm, 569 nm an...

Rapid and accurate estimation of blood saturation, melanin content, and epidermis thickness from spectral diffuse reflectance.

We present a method to determine chromophore concentrations, blood saturation, and epidermal thickness of human skin from diffuse reflectance spectra. Human skin was approximated as a plane-parallel slab of variable thickness supported by a semi-infinite layer corresponding to the epidermis and dermis, respectively. The absorption coefficient was modeled as a function of melanin content for the...

Accuracy of Approximate Inversion Schemes in Quantitative Photacoustic Imaging

Five numerical phantoms were developed to investigate the accuracy of approximate inversion schemes in the reconstruction of oxygen saturation in photoacoustic imaging. In particular, two types of inversion are considered: Type I, an inversion that assumes fluence is unchanged between illumination wavelengths, and Type II, a method that assumes known background absorption and scattering coeffic...
