Experimental demonstration of an analytic method for image reconstruction in optical diffusion tomography with large data sets.
We report the first experimental test of an analytic image reconstruction algorithm for optical tomography with large data sets. Using a continuous-wave optical tomography system with 10(8) source-detector pairs, we demonstrate the reconstruction of an absorption image of a phantom consisting of a highly scattering medium containing absorbing inhomogeneities.
