Abstract

This paper overviews recent results on immersion control of optical properties of various tissues and blood. OCT and polarization measurements were taken as advanced examples. It was demonstrated that reflection, transmission and state of polarization of the scattered light by a tissue or blood are effectively controlled by changes of refractive index of the background (blood plasma or tissue interstitial space).
