    Abstract

    To acquire the exact expression of the modified Beer-Lambert law for the transmission of Nd∶YAG laser in blood, the relationship between a geometry-dependent factor and blood depth must be clarified. In this study, we built a laser energy detecting system that can measure the transmitted Nd∶YAG laser energy using in vitro blood samples. Laser decay was measured in cylinder-shaped blood layer with a thickness of 1.0-2.5 mm, which is the typical blood layer thickness in clinical vascular diseases. Statistical methods and the R language were used to build linear, log, index, and power regression models of the geometry-dependent factor with blood thickness as an independent variable. The highest R2 value among these four models is 0.9219, corresponding to the linear regression model. Based on the abovementioned results, the exact expression of the specially modified Beer-Lambert law has been built for Nd∶YAG laser transmission in blood.
