Abstract
A method of fluorescence calibration. An excitation light is provided and incident on an object through an optical probe. The fluorescence light generated from the object is detected. Structural data of the object is acquired, and an optical attenuation property of the object is calculated based on the structural data. The fluorescence intensity is then calibrated based on the optical attenuation property.
