    Abstract: A phototherapy apparatus with interactive user interface for treating biological tissue of an animal or human target. The user interface comprises intuitive graphic menus which allow the clinicians or practitioners to define the properties of the biological tissue through easily observable physical characteristics such as weight, skin color, and hair color of the patient. The central control unit of the phototherapy apparatus then automatically optimizes the parameters of the light source according to the properties of the biological tissue and generates an appropriate treatment protocol to produce the optimum phototherapy result.

    Abstract: This invention relates to a light delivery and collection device for measuring Raman scattering from a large area of a sample. The light delivery and collection device comprises a reflective cavity made of a material or having a surface coating with high reflectivity to the excitation light and the Raman scattered light. The reflective cavity has two apertures. The first aperture is configured to receive the excitation light which then projects onto the second aperture. The second aperture is configured to be applied close to the sample such that the reflective cavity substantially forms an enclosure covering a large area of the sample. The excitation light produces Raman scattered light from the covered area of the sample. The reflective cavity reflects any excitation light and Raman light scattered from the sample unless the excitation light and the Raman scattered light either emit from the first aperture to be measured with a spectrometer device, or are re-scattered by the sample at the second aperture. The multi-reflection of the reflective cavity greatly improves the excitation efficiency of Raman scattering from the sample and in the meantime enhances its collection efficiency. In addition, it also causes more excitation light to penetrate into a diffusely scattering sample and allows efficient collection of the Raman scattered light generated thereof, hence enabling sub-surface Raman scattering measurement.
