Abstract

A simple method based on total internal reflection is presented for accurately measuring the refractive index of biological tissue. The refractive indices of water and a few kinds of porcine tissues have been determined at 0 488 μm, 0 6328 μm, 1 0795 μm and 1 3414 μm laser wavelength respectively, and their dispersion equations have been calculated. It proves that the method has great reliability and accuracy.
