Abstract
For research of photochemical processes which take place under the influence of light with definite wavelength it is important to know what quantity of light was absorbed by some or other chromophor. In photochemotherapy this gives an opportunity to choose the power, time and wavelength of light for effective influence. It is perfectly clear that the direct measurements of these contributions to absorption are difficult. So, it is necessary to use the numerical methods with application of effective models of light transport inside the sample. The purpose of the work is to develop the calculation method for partial contribution of separate chromophores based on 5-layer skin model.
