SENSITIVITY OF DIFFUSE CORRELATION SPECTROSCOPY TO FLOW RATES IN TISSUE-SIMULATING OPTICAL PHANTOMS

Zanfardino, Sara Marie

Abstract Details

2018, Master of Science, Miami University, Physics.
This thesis explored diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) as a flow-monitoring technique along with its theoretical formalism and experimental applications. Experimental data as presented here has validated our DCS system as a reliable, optical flow sensing device. The experiments report the decrease in DCS sensitivity to distinguish between flow speeds as the depth of the flow channel increases. The influence of optical properties of the medium surrounding a buried flow channel was investigated. This thesis concludes with the discussion of potential avenues for future research to expand these experiments.
