Abstract
Mueller matrix imaging can be used to obtain microstructure information of biological tissues, and plays an important role in the diagnosis of precancer. The results obtained by different imaging geometry may have significant difference to each other. To ensure the realibility of Mueller matrix imaging in the diagnosis of cancerous tissue, it is necessary to have a clear cognition of the influence of imaging geometry on the measurement results. The models of normal and cancerous epithelial tissues are established, and the effects of canceration on forward and backward scattering characteristics of epithelial tissues are analyzed by Monte Carlo simulation method. The simulation results show that it is depolarization that is sensitive to tissue state changes when imaging with forward scattering photons, but depolarization does not change monotonically. However, retardance of different tissues has a significant change when imaging with backscattering photons, and backward scattering retardance decreases gradually with the development of canceration.
