采用Monte Carlo方法,研究了生物组织的二阶和三阶光学参量对空间分辨漫反射率R(ρ)的影响。当光源与探测器间距离ρ为几个输运平均自由程l1时,漫射近似理论不再适用,R(ρ)与散射相函数的高阶Legendre矩有关。研究表明:二阶光学参量γ对R(ρ)的影响范围约为5l1,在0.6l1〈ρ〈5l1范围内,R(ρ)随γ减小而降低;三阶光学参量δ对R(ρ)的影响范围约为2l1在0.3l1〈ρ〈2l1内,R(ρ)随占增加而降低;并且当不满足△δ〈△γ的条件时,δ对R(ρ)的影响会补偿γ的影响,使R(ρ)与γ的关系变得无规律。
Influences of the second-order and third-order parameters of biological tissue on the spatially resolved diffuse reflectance are studied with Monte Carlo simulation. The reflectance R(ρ) is dependent on high-order moments of the tissues for a short source-detector separation, so the diffusion approximation theory fails to describe accurately R (ρ). It is found that the effective region of second-order parameter γ is about 5l1 (transport mean free path) ,and the curve of the reflectance R(ρ) rises with γ in the region of 0.6l1 〈 ρ〈5l1. The effects of third-order parameter δ on the reflectance R (ρ) are studied, and the effective region is about 2l1. We find that the curves of the reflectance R (ρ) depresses with δ in the region of 0. 3l1〈ρ〈2l1,and the effect of γ on RMC(ρ) appears irregular because that the effect of γ be counteracted by the effect of δ when the condition of Δδ〈〈 Δγ is not satisfied.
