Abstract

The propagation equation of a Lorentz-Gauss (LG) vortex beam in biological tissues is derived. The influences of the beam parameters and the biological tissues on the spreading properties of a LG vortex beam are investigated. The obtained results are interpreted numerically and shown that the LG vortex beam propagating through biological tissues with the stronger turbulence strength will lose the dark hollow center and evolve into the Gaussian-like beam more rapidly.
