Minimalistic or non-invasive diagnosis and treatment of skin disorders requires accurate information regarding skin optical properties. Spectrophotometric and Integrating Sphere (IS) methods are commonly used to extract information regarding absorption and scattering properties of samples, although in the field of skin optics the latter is used more widely. The aim of this study is to extract and compare absorption coefficients of liquid skin phantoms with these two methods.
