Systems, methods, and apparatuses of low-coherence enhanced backscattering spectroscopy

摘要

Systems, methods, and apparatuses of low-coherence enhanced backscattering spectroscopyare described within this application. One embodiment includes providing incidentlight comprising at least one spectral component having low coherence, whereinthe incident light is to be illuminated on a target object in vivo. An intensityof one or more of at least one spectral component and at least one angular componentof backscattering angle of backscattered light is recorded, wherein the backscatteredlight is to be backscattered from illumination of the incident light on the targetobject and wherein the backscattering angle is an angle between incident lightpropagation direction and backscattered light propagation direction. Theintensity of the at least one spectral component and the at least one backscatteringangle of backscattered light is analyzed, to obtain one or more optical markersof the backscattered light, toward evaluating said properties.
