Light Penetration Depth

Light Penetration Depth is the depth at which the intensity of incident light in a biological tissue decreases to 1/e (approximately 37%) of its original value, serving as a quantitative measure of how deeply light can effectively propagate into biological media before being significantly attenuated by scattering and absorption.
