Author:Singh, A; Smit, Jacoba E; Karsten, AE; Grobler, AF; Sparrow, RWDate:Sep 2010This study aims to extract and compare attenuation coefficients of different liquid skin-like phantoms representing Skin Types 1 to V1 with two methods, Spectrophotometric and Integrating Sphere methods. The correlation between the results ...Read more
Author:Singh, A; Karsten, ADate:May 2011The accuracy of the calibration model for the single and double integrating sphere systems are compared for a white light system. A calibration model is created from a matrix of samples with known absorption and reduced scattering coefficients. ...Read more

There are many different ways of determining the optical properties of turbid media. The paper ...Read more
Author:Monem, S; Singh, A; Karsten, AE; Amin, R; Harith, MADate:Dec 2015Tissue simulators, the so-called tissue phantoms, have been used to mimic human tissue for spectroscopic applications. Phantoms’ design depends on patterning the optical properties, namely absorption and scattering coefficients which characterize ...Read more
