Monitoring subcutaneous tumors using Mueller polarimetry: study on two types of tumors

Résumé

A better understanding of tumor development is crucial for treating cancer. Polarimetric imaging is an interesting alternative for monitoring subcutaneous tumors as it is non-invasive. In this study, a Mueller spectro-polarimeter is used to monitor tumor development on mice injected with non-pigmented breast cancer cells or with pigmented murine melanoma cells. Three stages of non-pigmented tumor development are revealed with three polarimetric parameters. These stages also appear for pigmented tumors, although less clearly. A halo of high depolarization surrounding the non-pigmented tumor in the first stage allows the outlining of the tumor. Considering polarimetric parameters, a biological interpretation is proposed.
