Extensive investigations on Spatial Frequency Domain Imaging (SFDI) are done for separation of absorption ( µ_a ) and reduced scattering coefficient ( µ_s′ ). However, for an accurate and absolute determination of e.g. drug concentrations, spectrally resolved measurements are generally inevitable. Moreover, structural and morphological changes of tissue or other substances mostly result in a change of the reduced scattering spectra. A new contact free and rapid method for measuring absorption and the reduced scattering coefficient spectra from 500 nm to 1000 nm is presented. Therefore a push broom spectral imager (InnoSpec, Germany) is used to map each point of a line parallel to a sinusoidal spatial intensity modulation spectrally resolved onto a CCD sensor. These images are post-processed with a special FFT algorithm to obtain the spectral resolved reflectance in the spatial frequency domain. To solve the inverse problem of separating absorption and reduced scattering, a nonlinear least squares regression is used, which applies analytical solutions of the Radiative Transfer Equation (RTE).
