We introduce a practical digital holographic method capable of imaging through a diffusive or scattering medium. The method relies on statistical averaging from a rotating ground glass diffuser to negate the adverse effects caused by…

Light scattering imposes a major obstacle for imaging objects seated deeply in turbid media, such as biological tissues and foggy air. Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) tackles scattering by volumetrically recovering the optical absorbance…

Dispersion is a common phenomenon in optics due to the frequency dependence of the refractive index in polychromatic light. This issue, if left untreated in optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging, leads to signal broadening of the…
