In this letter the authors highlight the presence of an error appearing in the discussion of the note 'The use of the Henyey-Greenstein phase function in Monte Carlo simulations in biomedical optics' previously published by them (Binzoni et al 2006 Phys. Med. Biol. 51 N313). In the light of this error, the discussion and conclusions in the original paper are revised in this letter and the role of the use of the phase functions in MC simulations, interpreted in probabilistic terms, is better clarified. The exact definition for the probability density function for the deflection angle, in the case of the Henyey-Greenstein model, is also given.
在这封信中，作者强调了他们之前发表的论文《亨尼叶-格林斯坦相位函数在生物医学光学蒙特卡罗模拟中的应用》（Binzoni等人，2006年，《物理医学与生物学》，第51卷，N313）讨论部分出现的一个错误。鉴于此错误，本信对原论文中的讨论和结论进行了修订，并从概率角度更好地阐明了相位函数在蒙特卡罗模拟中的作用。此外，还给出了亨尼叶-格林斯坦模型中偏转角概率密度函数的精确定义。
