The current methods for measuring these optical properties are influenced by both deep and superficial skin layers. Polarization\u2010based methods have been proposed in order to determine the influence of deep layer scattering. Polarized light allows for the separation of ballistic photons from diffuse ones, enhancing image contrast and resolution while providing additional tissue information. The Q\u2010sensing technique captures co\u2010polarized  and cross\u2010polarized  signals, making it possible to isolate the superficial scattering. However, the random structure of tissues leads to rapid depolarization of the polarized light. Detecting where the light becomes depolarized aids in sensing abnormalities within the tissues. Hence, this research focuses on identifying where depolarization occurs within the tissue. Tissue\u2010mimicking phantoms, simulating the optical properties of biological tissues, are created to measure depolarization at various thicknesses. Experimental findings are validated with a Monte Carlo simulation, modeling polarized light behavior through the polydisperse tissue (as the tissue scatterers are heterogeneous in size). Additionally, the research demonstrates how polarized light can extract the optical properties of the medium.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jbio.202400262","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,6]],"date-time":"2024-09-06T12:48:02Z","timestamp":1725626882000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Extracting Superficial Scattering by Q\u2010Sensing Technique"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Alon","family":"Tzroya","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The Faculty of Engineering and the Institute of Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials Bar Ilan University  Ramat Gan Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hamootal","family":"Duadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Faculty of Engineering and the Institute of Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials Bar Ilan University  Ramat Gan Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0963-7908","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dror","family":"Fixler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Faculty of Engineering and the Institute of Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials Bar Ilan University  Ramat Gan Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1117\/1.JBO.21.7.071114"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.optlaseng.2012.01.011"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1021\/nl403927c"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","first-page":"1089105","volume-title":"Nanoscale Imaging, Sensing, and Actuation for Biomedical Applications XVI","author":"Yariv I.","year":"2019"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1364\/OL.41.004312"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","volume-title":"Polarized Light in Biomedical Imaging and Sensing: Clinical and Preclinical Applications","author":"Ramella\u2010Roman J.
