✦ Synopsis

We present the results of a theoretical study providing
details of propagation of laser radiation within disperse randomly
inhomogeneous intermediately single-to-multiple scattering media.
A quantitative analysis of scattering orders in the transition
from single to multiple scattering is presented. Crossed
source-detector fiber optics geometry used to separate the
intensity of single scattering from higher scattering orders. The
results demonstrate good agreement between analytical and Monte
Carlo techniques. This validates the use of the Monte Carlo
approach in the intermediate single-to-multiple scattering regime.
The method used can be applied to verify analytical results
against experiment via the Monte Carlo calculations that include
imperfections of the experiment.
