Description 330-336
Monte Carlo simulation of photon scattering, with and without
abnormal tissue placed at various locations in the rectangular, semi-circular
and semi-elliptical tissue models, has been carried out. The absorption coefficient
of the tissue considered as abnormal is high and its scattering coefficient low
compared to that of the control tissue. The placement of the abnormality at
various locations within the models affects the transmission and surface
emission of photons at various locations. The scattered photons originating
from deeper layers make the maximum contribution at farther distances from the
beam entry point. The contribution of various layers to photon scattering
provides valuable data on variability of internal composition.
