    摘要: The present invention provides a method of monitoring performance of a discharge lamp. The discharge lamp includes electrodes and a discharge vessel filled with gas and equipped with a luminescent layer, wherein the gas is intended to emit a first ultraviolet light in a first spectral range when the gas is excited by an electric field produced by the electrodes, and at least part of the first ultraviolet light is intended to be changed into a second ultraviolet light in a second spectral range of longer wavelength than the first spectral range by the luminescent layer. The method comprises the steps of finding the value of a first intensity of the first ultraviolet light; finding the value of a second intensity of the second ultraviolet light; and determining the conversion efficiency of the luminescent layer for converting the first ultraviolet light into the second ultraviolet light on the basis of the ratio of the value of the second intensity to the value of the first intensity.

The invention also relates to a system for imaging an interior of a turbid medium (45) and a medical image acquisition system both using the method. According to the invention, the method, system for imaging an interior of a turbid medium (45), and medical image acquisition system are adapted such that data relating to the exterior of the turbid medium (45) can be obtained. This object is realized in that the method further comprises the following additional steps: coupling geometry input light (70, 75, 80) from a geometry light source into the receiving volume (12), with the receiving volume comprising the turbid medium (45), with the receiving volume (12) further comprising a geometry medium (60) for surrounding the turbid medium (45) during coupling of geometry input light (70, 75, 80) into the receiving volume (12), and with the combination of the geometry input light (70, 75, 80), the geometry medium (60), and the interface being chosen for creating a contrast between the turbid medium and its surroundings; —detection of the contrast between the turbid medium (45) and its surroundings; reconstructing an image of an interior of the turbid medium (45) using the detected contrast.
