Abstract

The errata correct errors that appeared in Table 2 of the published article.

This article [J. Biomed. Opt. 25(4), 045002 (2020), doi: 10.1117/1.JBO.25.4.045002] was originally published on 30 April 2020 with errors in Table 2. The legend did not mention blood oxygen saturation, and the third column showed incorrect values for reduced scattering coefficient μs (mm1) of human whole blood at wavelengths of 405, 532, 595, 632, 694, 755, 800, 980, and 1064 nm. The blood oxygen saturation is 96%, and the correct values for μs at each wavelength are 2.53, 2.11, 1.96, 1.88, 1.77, 1.68, 1.61, 1.41, and 1.34  mm1, respectively. These errors did not affect the results presented in this article. The corrected table is reproduced below:
