This review describes the diffusion model for light transport in tissues and the medical
applications of diffuse light. Diffuse optics is particularly useful for measurement of tissue …

This article reviews diffuse optical brain imaging, a technique that employs near-infrared
light to non-invasively probe the brain for changes in parameters relating to brain function …

Image reconstruction is essential for imaging applications across the physical and life
sciences, including optical and radar systems, magnetic resonance imaging, X-ray …

There have been three basic approaches to optical tomography since the early 1980s:
