Reconstruction Algorithms in Diffuse Optical Tomography

Ki Woon Kwon

The development of optical instruments and mathematical tomography algorithms made possible the optical coefficients imaging inside tissue using NIR(near infrared) lights. DOT (Diffuse Optical Tomography) using NIR light is emerged as a promising imaging modality and applied to many important areas. In this talk, with detailed explanation of DOT and its application areas, numerical reconstruction algorithms in DOT is presented and some numerical approaches enhancing the reonstruction algorithms are suggested.
