We introduce a technique that is capable of obtaining complete polarization-sensitive three-dimensional images that could reveal unknown anatomical conditions of living tissue that possess polarization-dependent signatures. Previously, the 16 Mueller coefficients were measured independently only by use of two-dimensional imaging techniques. We also present the experimental combination of a depth-resolved confocal imaging system with a complete Mueller matrix polarimeter. To calibrate the system, a double-pass method had to be implemented. We also indicate, experimentally, that the confocal sectioning of the system has a degrading effect on axially resolved Mueller matrix measurements. (c) 2006 Optical Society of America.
