Abstract

A method for investigating the optical properties of human tissues is suggested. The method is based on the measurement of Cherenkov radiation produced by relativistic electrons passing through the tissue. Monte-Carlo simulation of visible photon emission and propagation is carried out taking into account multiple electron and photon scattering processes. Sensitivity of the Cherenkov radiation to the optical characteristics of human tissues is demonstrated.
