dc.description.abstract | Diffuse optical tomography is an optical technique to create 3-dimensional images of the inside of highly scattering material. Research groups around the world have been developing imaging systems using various source-detector arrangements to determine optical properties of biological tissue with a focus on medical applications. In this paper we investigate whether a range imaging camera can be used as a detector array. We used time-of-flight range imaging cameras instead of the conventional source-detector array used by others. The results provided in this paper show reconstructed images of absorption and reduced scattering of an object submerged in a tissue simulating phantom. Using the ranging camera XZ422 Demonstrator and the NIRFAST software package, we reconstructed 2D images of a 6 mm metal rod submerged in the centre of a 5 cm deep tank filled with 1% IntralipidTM. We have shown for the first time that range imaging cameras can replace the traditional detectors in diffuse optical tomography. | en_NZ |
