Abstract

Accurate assessment of light distributions in the brain is vital for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. This, in turn, requires knowledge of the optical properties of brain tissues. The optical properties of a variety of mammalian brain tissues are summarized in this review. Both ex vivo and in vivo measurement techniques are reviewed as are solutions to the radiation transport equation which are required for calculating light distributions in the brain.
