Abstract

The spatial distributions of fluence rate (2-D, 3-D) in normal and cancerous human lung tissues in vitro were determined at the 676.4 nm of a Kr⁺ laser by using a small isotropic fiber-optic probe. By comparing the measured fluence distributions with Monte Carlo simulations, the optical properties of human lung tissues at the 676.4 nm were estimated for the first time.
