Abstract

This study demonstrates that different particle size and concentrations lead differences in the spatial pattern of backscattered light when viewed through a polarizer. These differences can be explained by Rayleigh and Mie theory, and can be used to characterize strongly scattering media like biomedical cell suspensions and tissues.
