Improved solutions of the steady-state and the time-resolved diffusion equations for reflectance from a semi-infinite turbid medium
Abstract
Improved solutions of the diffusion equation for time-resolved and steady-state spatially resolved reflectance are investigated for the determination of the optical coefficients of semi-infinite turbid media such as tissue. These solutions are derived for different boundary conditions at the turbid-medium-air interface and are compared with Monte Carlo simulations. Relative reflectance data are fitted in the time domain, whereas relative and absolute reflectance are investigated in the steady-state domain. It is shown that the error in deriving the optical coefficients is, especially for steady-state spatially resolved reflectance, considerably smaller for the solutions under study than for the commonly used solutions. Analysis of experimental measurements of absolute steady-state spatially resolved reflectance confirms these results.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
