Abstract

A new azimuthally stable polarimetric method for processing of microscopic images of optically anisotropic structures of different biological layers blood plasma is proposed. A new model of phase anisotropy definition of biological tissues by using superposition of Mueller matrices of linear birefringence and optical activity is proposed. The matrix element M₄₄ has been chosen as the main information parameter, which value is independent of rotation angle of both sample and probing beam polarization plane.
