Mueller polarimetry as a tool for optical biopsy of tissue

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Multi-spectral imaging Mueller polarimetry holds promise to become a new tool for optical biopsy of tissue. Significant increase in contrast between malignant lesions and healthy human tissue was observed on wide field polarimetric images acquired with in-house built Mueller polarimeter. Both theoretical and numerical studies explored the physical origin of the observed enhancement of polarimetric image contrast.
