Abstract

The interconnection between geometry of biological tissue structure with their polarization properties has been studied. It has been shown that for physiologically normal biological tissues polarization properties of radiation scattered on architectonic nets formed by protein fibrils possess the fractal character. Pathological changes of biological tissues architectonics are accompanied with the transformation of self-similar structure of Mueller-matrix images into stochastic and statistic ones.
