Hybrid theory for photon transport in tissue
Within physics, the Hybrid Theory for photon transport in tissue uses the advantages and eliminates the deficiencies of both the Monte Carlo method and the diffusion theory for photon transport to model photons traveling through tissue both accurately and efficiently. == MCML (Monte Carlo Modeling of Light Transportation in Multi-Layered Medium) == The MCML is a numerical way to simulate photon transport in biological tissue.
