SYSTEMS, METHODS AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM FOR DETERMINING DEPTH-RESOLVED PHYSICAL AND/OR OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF SCATTERING MEDIA BY ANALYZING MEASURED DATA OVER A RANGE OF DEPTHS

摘要

According to exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, method, system and computer-accessible medium can be provided for determining at least one property of at least one biological structure. For example, it is possible to obtain a plurality of signals received at particular depths within the biological structure(s), where at least first one of the signals can be obtained from a first depth of the particular depths, and at least second one of the signals can be obtained from a second depth of the particular depths. The first and second depths can be different from one another. In addition, it is possible to determine information based on the signals and an assumed property of the biological structure(s). Further, it is possible to determine at least one calculated property based on the information by excluding at least a portion of the information associated with the signals provided from the particular depths that are closer than a predetermined depth within the biological structure(s). For example, the calculated property can be an attenuation optical property and/or a physical property.
