User can also set various simulation parameters through the dialog box interface. The
functions of various buttons on each sub-page are described below, including 5 parts: the main
interface of the parameter setting, the medium interface, the light source interface, the detector
interface and the interface of the simulation properties.
1. Main Interface of the Parameter Setting
Click ‘Add spectrum,’ where users can add a new spectrum as shown in Figure 19. Due to
the different optical parameters among different spectra, users should enter the optical parameters
of the tissues and source parameters corresponding to the new spectrum.
Figure 19 Dialog box of adding a new spectrum.
Click ‘Del Spectrum,’ users can delete the selected spectrum shown as Figure 20. Click
“OK,” and all of the optical parameters of the tissues and the source parameters corresponding to
the spectrum will be deleted.

Click ‘Apply,’ and users will save all of the parameters in the interface.
Click ‘Cancel,’ and users will quit the ‘Parameter Setting’ dialog box without saving the
parameters.
Click ‘OK,’ and users will save all of the parameters and quit the ‘Parameter Setting’ dialog
box.
2. Medium Interface
In MOSE, the simulation object is defined as medium, and it consists of a homogeneous
medium (contains only one tissue) and heterogeneous medium (contains more than one tissue).
Parameters used to define the tissue consist of the shape and optical parameters. The shape can be
regular (2D: rectangle, ellipse; 3D: cube, ellipsoid, cylinder) or irregular (triangle mesh). The
