The configuration of glass-slide based cell or tissue sample. The reflected wave at the glass-sample interface serves as a reference wave, and the backscattered wave due to the structural heterogeneity inside the cell serves as a sample wave. The reference wave can also enhanced by putting a reflection coating at the sample/glass slide interface. The mounting medium is placed between the sample and the coverslip.
