Abstract

A mathematical model is proposed for predicting optical characteristics (refractive index and absorption coefficient) of a biotissue being simulated, which is probed in vivo by a laser beam. Blood corpuscles in this case are simulated by particles of irregular shape and various sizes, which are oriented arbitrarily in free space.
