Single-Scattering Optical Tomography: Simultaneous Reconstruction of Scattering and Absorption

Optics 2011-01-07 v1 Medical Physics

Abstract

We demonstrate that simultaneous reconstruction of scattering and absorption of a mesoscopic system using angularly-resolved measurements of scattered light intensity is possible. Image reconstruction is realized based on the algebraic inversion of a generalized Radon transform relating the scattering and absorption coefficients of the medium to the measured light intensity and derived using the single-scattering approximation to the radiative transport equation.
