Optical properties of human skin, subcutaneous and mucous tissues in the wavelength range from 400 to 2000 nm

The optical properties of human skin, subcutaneous adipose tissue and human mucosa were measured in the wavelength range 400-2000 nm. The measurements were carried out using a commercially available spectrophotometer with an integrating sphere. The inverse adding-doubling method was used to determin...

Summary:The optical properties of human skin, subcutaneous adipose tissue and human mucosa were measured in the wavelength range 400-2000 nm. The measurements were carried out using a commercially available spectrophotometer with an integrating sphere. The inverse adding-doubling method was used to determine the absorption and reduced scattering coefficients from the measurements.
