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 is a review of recent mathematical and computational advances in optical tomography.
We discuss the physical foundations of forward models for light propagation on microscopic …

We report a parallel Monte Carlo algorithm accelerated by graphics processing units (GPU)
for modeling time-resolved photon migration in arbitrary 3D turbid media. By taking …

We review the current state-of-the-art of diffuse optical imaging, which is an emerging
technique for functional imaging of biological tissue. It involves generating images using …

We describe a fast mesh-based Monte Carlo (MC) photon migration algorithm for static and
time-resolved imaging in 3D complex media. Compared with previous works using voxel …

We describe a novel Monte Carlo code for photon migration through 3D media with spatially
varying optical properties. The code is validated against analytic solutions of the photon …

A number of technological processes and natural phenomena are accompanied by heat
transfer concerned with media thermal radiation. Generally, thermal radiation is thought to …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a new and increasingly widespread brain imaging
technique, particularly suitable for young infants. The laboratories of the McDonnell …

Adequate modeling of light propagation in a human head is important for quantitative near-
infrared spectroscopy and optical imaging. The presence of a nonscattering cerebrospinal …

The presented study consists of two parts. The overall goal is to introduce and
experimentally test a novel optical tomographic imaging algorithm that is based on the …
