Abstract

We previously developed theory¹ on new method for early detection of tissue anomaly with modified interferometric scattering experiment. The method is based on the ability of photons, passing through sample without scattering or absorption, to preserve their coherence (polarization and phase). These photons produce interference pattern. We describe experimental setup and initial results that predict feasibility of new method. The amplitude of the fringe pattern contains the information about the sample transmission characteristics. The zero phase for each pixel contains the phase information due to travel inside the tissue.
