  • Title: [Correction of light refraction and reflection in medical transmission optical tomography].
    Author: Tereshchenko SA, Potapov DA.
    Journal: Med Tekh; 2002; (3):3-7. PubMed ID: 12224249.
    Abstract:
    The effects of light refraction and reflection on the quality of image reconstruction in medical transmission optical tomography of high-scattering media are considered. It has been first noted that light refraction not only distorts the geometric scheme of measurements, but may lead to the appearance of object areas that cannot be scanned. Some ways of decreasing the effect of refraction on the reconstruction of spatial distribution of the extinction coefficient are stated.
