Unspecific back pain (UBP) has long puzzled medical professionals. Historically, back pain (BP) was often attributed to mystical causes, treated with incantations or herbal concoctions. The Middle Ages shifted towards empirical practices, though still intertwined with superstition, using methods like leeches and bloodletting.

- The text discusses a new method for accurately characterizing optical tissue-mimicking phantoms using time-resolved transmittance measurements, which are crucial for ensuring high-quality production and control.
- This method involves correcting data for errors related to noise, sample thickness, and instrument response before comparison to a Monte Carlo simulation model that accounts for the sample's geometry.
- An error analysis estimates the absolute accuracy of the method, achieving low error margins for both absorption and reduced scattering coefficients, indicating a reliable technique for phantom characterization.
