Methods and means of polarization parameter control in biotissue imaging polarimetry

Abstract

The given paper considers experimental methods and means of laser polarimetry that can be used for control of polarization parameters of biotissues, in particular, in case of determination of the degree of pathological changes in human skin. The scheme and operation of universal automated imaging polarimeter are considered. The results of experimental research of Mueller matrices and corresponding polarization characteristics for thin cuts of human skin with visualization by means of vector analysis are presented.
