Photometric and Monte-Carlo modeling unified approach for the calculation of spatially-resolved correction
Abstract:
The estimation of skin optical properties by means of inverse problem solving from spatially resolved diffuse reflectance (SR-DR) spectra is one way to exploit the acquired clinical signals. This method requires the comparison between the experimental spectra collected with a medical device, and spectra generated by the photons transport numerical simulations. This comparison is usually limited to spectral shape due to the absence of intensity standardization of the experimental DR spectra. This study proposes to theoretically (using photometric calculation) and experimentally (from experimental spectra acquired on optical phantom) establish a corrective factor to obtain common intensity unit for experimental and simulated signals.
