The present invention relates to a method of decomposition of a test sample into constituents thereof. The method proceeds by optically imaging the test sample to obtain a corresponding unknown time-domain resolved signal and decomposes the unknown time-domain resolved signal by comparing the unknown time-domain resolved signal with time-domain resolved reference signals. Furthermore, the method allows the determination of the presence or absence of constituents. Relative quantities may also be determined if sample material properties are known or taken into account. Lifetime decay of the constituents may also be estimated by handling effect of light diffusion in the test sample as time decay.
