Inverse Transport Theory and Optical Tomography
Inverse Transport Theory and Optical Tomography
John C. Schotland
University of Pennsylvania
There is considerable interest in the development of optical methods for
biomedical imaging. The mathematical problem consists of recovering
the optical properties of a highly-scattering medium probed by diffuse
light. This talk will review recent work on related inverse scattering
problems for the radiative transport equation and efficient image
reconstruction algorithms for large data sets. Numerical simulations and
experimental data from model systems are used to illustrate the results.
