Abstract

The possibility of the fluorescence spectroscopy for diagnosing a pathology in human tissues is studied now very intensively. However, there are not much and good theoretical models to calculate the fluorescence intensity in scattering and absorbing non-homogeneous biological tissues. Moreover, such models are needed for up-to-date laser medical non- invasive diagnostic equipment and technique which run by principle of an inverse optical task solution. In order to obtain the acceptable model we used the Transport equation and multi-layered plane medium. The Method of Moments was used to solve the Transport equation with calculation of the moment of fluorescence flux at the last step of the solution.
