Original Abstract

Optical polarimetry is a mighty tool for study of transparent and translucent inorganic and organic materials. Growing interest in better health and also the quality of the food pointed the investigation of physical properties of biological turbid tissues. Due to the fact that biological tissue is complex random material showing inhomogeneity, anisotropy and nonlinearity in the structure, its rigorous characterization is almost impossible. This complexity also involves an important amount of information. Therefore the research of polarization states of scattered light is one of emerging novel techniques in biomedical science. The paper deals with experimental study of degree of polarization and also with simulation of the biological tissue by Monte Carlo method.

Keywords

Polarization, multiple scattering, turbid medium, light transport, Monte Carlo simulations, biological and medical application
