Abstract
Time-resolved Fourier optical diffuse tomography is a novel approach for im aging of objects in a highly scattering turbid medium with use of an incide nt (near) plane wave. The theory of the propagation of spatial Fourier comp onents of the scattered wave field is presented, along with a fast algorith m for three-dimensional reconstruction in a parallel planar geometry. Examp les of successful reconstructions of simulated hidden absorptive or scatter ing objects embedded inside a human-tissue-like semi-infinite turbid medium are provided.
