摘要
The transmission of various tissue samples was measured between 1064 and 2000 nm. From these experiments, extinction coefficients were found to vary between 5 and 110 cm(-1). In this spectral range, all the investigated tissues except fat showed two water absorption peaks centred at 1450 and 1950 nm. We have observed a greater extinction coefficient in brain than in other tissues which we have attributed to differences in scattering properties.
