Implementation of a logarithmic division-of-focal-plane polarimeter to quantify changes in collagen alignment at varying levels of illumination
Abstract
We examine the impact of illumination, aperture, and sample thickness on two division-of-focal-plane (DoFP) polarimeters, one created using a standard 3 T pixel and the other with a forward-biased, logarithmic pixel. Across all measured metrics the logarithmic DoFP polarimeter was better able to track real-time changes in collagen alignment than the standard DoFP polarimeter.
