Diffuse optical reflection tomography using continuous wave illumination

Opt Express. 1998 Aug 3;3(3):118-23. doi: 10.1364/oe.3.000118.

Abstract

Diffuse optical reflection tomography is used to reconstruct absorption images from continuous-wave measurements of diffuse light re-emitted from a "semi-infinite" medium. The imaging algorithm is simple and fast and permits psuedo-3D images to be reconstructed from measurements made with a single source of light. Truly quantitative three-dimensional images will require modifications to the algorithm, such as incorporating measurements from multiple sources.
