Study of dynamic pressure-induced refractive index change using derivative total reflection method
Year: 2013
Type: article
Abstract: We report the dynamic refractive index (RI) change of tissue under a stepped compression load using a custom-built pressure apparatus. Angle-dependent reflectance profiles of biotissue samples are recorded, and the RI values are resolved using the derivative total reflection method. These results are relevant for understanding the mechanism of mechanical optical clearing, for investigating tissue dynamics under mechanical stimuli, and for other biomedical applications.
