Abstract
In order to simplify computation time for multi-exposure speckle imaging, we recently presented a new indicator of blood flow, i.e. the slope of the inverse square of the contrast values versus camera exposure time (kslope). In this paper we simulate a sequence of correlated dynamic speckle images to test the viability of kslope as an indicator of flow velocity. We find that the presence of static scattering doesn’t influence the linear relationship between the slope and flow velocity. We also show that the normalization can be performed to obtain equivalence relation between relative slope values and relative flow velocity. The computation can be greatly simplified for multi-exposure speckle imaging. This new indicator kslope can play an important role in quantitatively assessing tissue blood flow velocity.
