Effect of wavelength and beam width on penetration in light-tissue interaction using computational methods

Short summary

Computational modeling reveals that light penetration depth in tissue increases with wavelength, reaching up to 5378 μm. A 10-mm beam width delivers 73-88% of the fluence at 1-3 mm depths compared to an infinitely wide beam, indicating limited benefit from larger spot sizes for deeper penetration.
