Laser speckle size and contrast investigation of volumetric scattering from controlled turbid phantoms and mouse skin tissues.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The potential of spatial laser speckle analysis to interrogate scattering properties of volumetric optical tissue-like phantoms and biological tissues is examined. The simple and inexpensive experimental setup consists of a HeNe laser illuminating turbid samples to acquire speckle patterns in backscattering geometry. Theoretical Monte Carlo simulations of subsurface light fluence patterns and scattering statistics are used to interpret the experimental findings, in an effort to help expand established speckle theory from rough surface effects to volumetric scattering processes. Beyond controlled phantom studies, initial results from normal and pathologic biological tissues are also presented and discussed. Building on previous research that attempts to link specific stochastic speckle metrics to medium scattering properties, this study suggests that a combination of speckle contrast and speckle size can be related to varying scattering coefficients, toward distinguishing samples by their underlying scatterer size and concentration.
