Janusz Mroczka, Tomasz Wojtaszek, Dariusz Wysoczański

Abstract

The light scattering models of red blood cell (RBC) are presented. Erythrocyte is modelled as a spheroid. Main purpose of this paper is to present single and multiple light scattering by erythrocytes in different physiological conditions. The osmotic pressure and oxygenation, as well as hematocrit influence on scattered light properties are presented.
