Shadow Effect of Large Lesions in Optical Tomography Breast Imaging

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

When a highly-absorbing lesion is imaged with optical tomography in reflection geometry, most photons are absorbed by top portion of the lesion. We use photon-tracking technique to quantify this light- shadow effect as function of target size.
