    light deflects in various directions when hitting particles or irregularities

    Light scattering refers to the process by which light rays are deflected in various directions when they encounter particles or irregularities in a medium, such as air, water, or biological tissues. This phenomenon is crucial in fields like biology and medicine, as it helps in imaging techniques and understanding how light interacts with cells and tissues, which can be particularly relevant in diagnosing conditions like alopecia through non-invasive methods.
