Investigation of the correlation structure of biological tissue polarization images during the diagnostics of their oncological changes

Abstract

We have considered the theoretical background of biological tissue complex polarization analysis: (1) polarization mapping; (2) polarization–correlation mapping; (3) polarization correlometry. The technique of interferometric measurements of 2D distributions of the complex degree of mutual polarization of biological tissue images has been proposed. The totality of diagnostically urgent interconnections between the statistical and correlation structure of biological tissue polarization images and the optical–geometrical structure of their architectonics has been determined.
