Published: December 2003

Light propagation in a turbid medium is considered using the linear transport equation. The existence of a diffusion length is proved for the Henyey-Greenstein scattering kernel for all absorption ratios. Numerical methods are given that allow accurate computation of the diffusion coefficient quite easily.
