W. Cai et al., TIME-RESOLVED OPTICAL DIFFUSION TOMOGRAPHIC IMAGE-RECONSTRUCTION IN HIGHLY SCATTERING TURBID MEDIA, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United Statesof America, 93(24), 1996, pp. 13561-13564
The image of an object hidden in highly scattering media was reconstru
cted using a fast, noise-resistant algorithm newly applied to diffusio
n tomography. A pulsed light source producing scattered and transmitte
d light is examined at multiple times. Multiple source detector pairs
around the medium are used to obtain data in many different directions
. An inverse scattering algorithm with nonuniform regularization achie
ves rapid inversion convergence.
