The disclosure relates to a method for measuring particle size of particles suspended in a fluid, the method comprising modulating (S1)
radiation with a
periodic wave optical
mask; illuminating (S2) the fluid with the modulated
radiation; detecting scattered
radiation and / or transmitted radiation (S3-1) with a 2D
detector capturing an image at a first modulation frequency; detecting scattered radiation and / or transmitted radiation (S3-2) with a 2D
detector capturing an image at a second modulation frequency; extracting (S4) a first image for the first modulation frequency and a second image for the second modulation frequency, respectively; calculating(S5) a first
extinction coefficient for the first modulation frequency and the second modulation frequency, respectively, based on the first extracted image and the second extracted image, respectively; determining the size (S7) of the
suspended particles based on the relationship between the first calculated
extinction coefficient and the second calculated
extinction coefficient. The disclosure further relates to an
assembly for measuring particle size of particles suspended in a fluid.
