| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立陽明大學 === 生醫光電工程研究所 === 98 === Polarimetric imaging of Stokes vector (I, Q, U, V) can provide 4 independent signatures showing the linear and circular polarization properties of samples of interest including biological tissues and cells. Using a Stokes digital imaging system, we measured the Stokes vector images of tissue samples from sections of rat livers. The derived Mueller matrix elements can quantitatively provide five-signature spectral imaging data of the bio-samples. The imaging of four independent optical properties: anisotropy, scattering, depolarization and retardation phase of the test sample are derived and reported. Our experimental results are consistent with the general trend predicted by the theoretical model. This polarimetric multi-signature optical technology is a new option of bio-sensing technology to inspect the structures of tissue samples and is potentially useful for critical disease discrimination and medical diagnostics applications.
