Simulation of photon migration process in the biological environment

Abstract

The article developed an improved simulation model of the propagation of photons in scattering biotissue based on the Monte Carlo method, which allows comprehensive consideration of all the main optical processes that occur during the propagation of optical radiation through BT. On the basis of the developed statistical model, simulation modeling of photon propagation processes in the skin and its separate layers was carried out, which allowed to establish the scattering and transmission characteristics for each of the skin layers with model parameters taking into account the angles of incidence of radiation in the visible and near-IR ranges, the thickness of the skin layers. Also, the simulation made it possible to determine the relative intensity of scattered photons depending on localization.
