3-D Image Reconstruction in Optical Tomography
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Problem: Optical tomography (OT), as a potential diagnostic tool for detecting growths in translucent soft tissue, has been proposed and studied by several groups in recent years. Its principle is to use multiple movable light sources and detectors attached to the tissue surface to collect information on light attenuation, and to reconstruct the internal 3-D absorption and scattering distributions. Unusual growths inside the tissue may be discerned from the recovered optical densities because tumorous tissue has different scattering and absorption properties.

متن کاملAn Efficient Method for Model Reduction in Diffuse Optical Tomography
We present an efficient method for the reduction of model equations in the linearized diffuse optical tomography (DOT) problem. We first implement the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimator and Tikhonov regularization, which are based on applying preconditioners to linear perturbation equations. For model reduction, the precondition is split into two parts: the principal components are consid...
