Abstract

Visible integrating sphere spectroscopy was applied to determine the optical properties of turbid media in the spectral range of 480 to 650 nm. Total transmission and diffuse remission were measured. As samples, we used liquid phantoms consisting of pH-buffer solution and different amounts of Lipovenoes 10% or black ink. It was investigated if the scattering coefficient and the absorption coefficient of turbid media can be accurately obtained.
