An investigation into the role of the optical detection set−up in the recording of cardiac optical mapping signals: A Monte Carlo simulation study

MJ Bishop‚ G. Bub‚ A. Garny‚ DJ Gavaghan and B. Rodriguez

Abstract

Photon scattering is known to distort the fluorescence signals recorded from optically mapped cardiac tissue. However, the contribution of the parameters which define the optical detection set-up has not been assessed. In this study, Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of photon scattering within ventricular tissue are combined with a detailed model of a tandem-lens optical detection apparatus to characterise (i) the sp
