- This extended method significantly speeds up calculations, reducing computation time by 400 times, making it useful for optimizing fluorescent layers in iterative processes.
Article Abstract
In this paper a fast, yet accurate method to estimate the spectral and angular distribution of the scattered radiation of a fluorescent material is described. The proposed method is an extension of the adding-doubling algorithm for non-fluorescent samples. The method is validated by comparing the spectral and angular transmittance and reflectance characteristics obtained with the extended algorithm with the results obtained using Monte Carlo simulations. The agreement using both methods is within 2%. However, the adding-doubling method achieves a reduction of the calculation time by a factor of 400. Due to the short calculation time, the extended adding-doubling method is very useful when fluorescent layers have to be optimized in an iterative process.

The non-invasive monitoring of tumor growth can offer invaluable diagnostic insights and enhance our understanding of tumors and their microenvironment. Integrating hyperspectral imaging (HSI) with three-dimensional optical profilometry (3D OP) makes contactless and non-invasive tumor diagnosis possible by utilizing the inherent tissue contrast provided by visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) light. Consequently, valuable information regarding tumors and healthy tissues can be extracted from the acquired hyperspectral images.

Significance: Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) of murine tumor models grown in dorsal skinfold window chambers (DSWCs) offers invaluable insight into the tumor microenvironment. However, light loss in a glass coverslip is often overlooked, and particular tissue characteristics are improperly modeled, leading to errors in tissue properties extracted from hyperspectral images.
Aim: We highlight the significance of spectral renormalization in HSI of DSWC models and demonstrate the benefit of incorporating enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) excitation and emission in the skin tissue model for tumors expressing genes to produce EGFP.
