title: Self-consistent boundary condition for photon diffusion calculation.
abstract: The photon diffusion equation has been widely used to assess near-infrared spectroscopy of biological tissues. Here, we introduce the self-consistent boundary condition for the truncated boundary into this calculation. This reduces the effect of the boundary on the results, showing that the self-consistent boundary condition is useful for calculations for analyzing optical topographic images.
