Fluorescence spectroscopy of oral tissue: Monte Carlo modeling with site-specific tissue properties.
A Monte Carlo model with site-specific input is used to predict depth-resolved fluorescence spectra from individual normal, inflammatory, and neoplastic oral sites. Our goal in developing this model is to provide a computational tool to study how the morphological characteristics of the tissue affect clinically measured spectra. Tissue samples from the measured sites are imaged using fluorescen...
متن کاملThe study of neutron interactions with soft tissue using Monte Carlo simulation using the source PF
The most important part of neutron therapy treatment (NCT1) is to achieve a beam of neutrons with suitable energy and intensity, as well as the least pollution and damage. In this study, in order to correct the neutron spectrum from D-D fusion and its use in neutron therapy, a set of different materials which are called the Beam Shaping Assembly (BSA) was placed in the direction of energy 2.45 ...
متن کاملRecovering intrinsic fluorescence by Monte Carlo modeling.
We present a novel way to recover intrinsic fluorescence in turbid media based on Monte Carlo generated look-up tables and making use of a diffuse reflectance measurement taken at the same location. The method has been validated on various phantoms with known intrinsic fluorescence and is benchmarked against photon-migration methods. This new method combines more flexibility in the probe design...
متن کاملTurbidity-free fluorescence spectroscopy of biological tissue.
We present a method based on photon migration of extracting intrinsic fluorescence spectra from turbid media, using concomitantly measured fluorescence and reflectance. Intrinsic fluorescence is defined as fluorescence that is due only to fluorophores, without interference from the absorbers and scatterers that are present. Application to fluorescence spectra taken with tissue phantoms and huma...
متن کاملStudy of the Compton scattering effect of soft tissue in PET imaging by Monte Carlo method
Introduction:In PET imaging, one or both of two annihilation photons may change the direction before reaching the detector due to Compton scattering interaction in body. .Methods:This article, a Monte Carlo simulation study, examined the effect of soft tissue on this error.In this work, the PET BiographTM 6 scanner, a simple geometry of soft tissue -including a sphere of soft tissue in center ...
