INFLUENCE OF TISSUE ABSORPTION AND SCATTERING ON DIFFUSE CORRELATION SPECTROSCOPY BLOOD FLOW MEASUREMENTS

This investigation evaluates the influences of optical property assumptions on nearinfrared diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) flow index measurements. Independent variation is induced in optical properties, absorption coefficient (μa) and reduced scattering coefficient (μs’), of liquid phantoms...
