Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a clinically approved, minimally invasive therapeutic
procedure that can exert a selective cytotoxic activity toward malignant cells. The procedure …

When a picosecond light pulse is incident on biological tissue, the temporal characteristics of
the light backscattered from, or transmitted through, the sample carry information about the …

… Papazoglou has recently written an overview of the diagnosis of malignancies and atherosclerotic
plaque using fluorescence spectroscopy (9), while Andersson-Engels and Wilson (10) …

A Monte Carlo computer model has been developed to study the propagation of light in
tissues. Light attenuation is assumed to result from absorption and isotropic scattering. The …

A model based upon steady‐state diffusion theory which describes the radial dependence
of diffuse reflectance of light from tissues is developed. This model incorporates a photon …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) uses light-activated drugs to treat diseases ranging from cancer
to age-related macular degeneration and antibiotic-resistant infections. This paper reviews …

Susceptibility to immune-mediated diabetes (IMD) in humans and NOD mice involves their
inherently defective T cell immunoregulatory abilities. We have followed natural killer (NK) T …

Intralipid™ is an intravenous nutrient consisting of an emulsion of phospholipid micelles and
water. Because Intralipid is turbid and has no strong absorption bands in the visible region …

The absorption and transport scattering coefficients of biological tissues determine the radial
dependence of the diffuse reflectance that is due to a point source. A system is described …
