This paper presents the theoretical fundamentals, prerequisites for creation, and peculiarities of modeling a new method for determining the refractive index of biological tissues. The method uses a mirror ellipsoid of revolution as an optical element to ensure total internal reflection phenomena. This paper thoroughly analyzes the differences in the refractive index of healthy and pathological tissues on a biometric diagnostic basis. The analysis is used to model the measurement setup’s parameters. This paper also considers various methods of determining the refractive index of biological tissues based on different principles of physical optics, such as interferometry, refractometry, ellipsometry, and goniophotometry. It systematizes typical optical elements of total internal reflection that can be used in goniophotometry. It justifies the selection of the element base for the goniometric installation based on the ellipsoidal reflector method. A simulation of the installation operation was carried out for various parameters of the ellipsoidal reflector, ensuring the measurement of the biological tissue refractive index from 1.33 to 1.7. This paper also proposes a constructive solution for manufacturing an ellipsoidal reflector of the required configuration.
