ABSTRACT

Mishchenko 2009

Mishchenko, M.I., 2009: Review of Tissue Optics: Light Scattering Methods and Instruments for Medical Diagnostics (2nd ed), by V. Tuchin. J. Quant. Spectrosc. Radiat. Transfer, 110, 528, doi:10.1016/j.jqsrt.2009.02.009.

Although being allegedly a second edition of the volume published by the SPIE Press in 2000, this book can be safely said to be new in terms of both much larger size and much more comprehensive and systematic coverage. The main objective of the book is to summarize the entire area of tissue optics: theory, measurement techniques, analysis techniques, and medical diagnostics applications, with a special (and highly appreciated) emphasis on the electromagnetic (vector) nature of light. This objective is accomplished, albeit in a particular way.
