Abstract
A method and apparatus for determining particle size distribution in undiluted suspensions using spectral measurements of transport-scattering co-efficients using continuous photon-migration techniques is provided. Particle size distribution for concentrated suspensions is determined by a regularized inverse algorithm and may be obtained without a priori distribution function assumptions.
