The identification of the border between tumor and healthy brain tissue remains a main challenge in glioma surgery. To address this problem we suggest using the Mueller Polarimetric Imaging (MPI) operating in the visible spectral range. In our prior studies, we demonstrated the potential of MPI to assess the anisotropy of healthy brain tissue in fixed and fresh specimens. In this study, we use the MPI system in backscattering geometry in order to evaluate and determine the depth of light penetration through the evaluation of 2D surface polarimetric maps of the formalin-fixed human cerebral corpus callosum sections of different thicknesses.
