Abstract
Control of tissue optical properties is important for development of optical tomography, photodynamic therapy and selective photodamage of tissue components. As a scattering medium, tissue shows optical effects that are characteristic for turbid optical systems. Administration of the appropriate chemical agents like solutions of glucose, glycerol, propylene glycol, etc. can effectively change scattering properties of a living tissue. (Summary only available)
