Abstract

We describe here Mueller matrix microscopy, an imaging technique for investigating the anisotropic properties of the refractive index in biological samples. Tissue properties probed by polarization are the anisotropic real and imaginary parts of the refractive index that modify the polarization. Physical Sciences Inc. has developed a robust polarization microscope that is capable of performing complete Mueller matrix imaging in both transmission and reflection configuration. The system’s capabilities are illustrated on biological samples.
