Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) and Fluorescence mediated tomography (FMT) are powerful in-vivo optical imaging techniques but they are affected by long acquisition and computational times. Recently, the use of structured light has been proposed in order to reduce the acquisition time and also the computational time of the inverse problem. Additionally, it has been proposed to compress the measur...<br/><br/>Andrea Bassi, Nicolas Ducros, Cosimo D’Andrea, Gianluca Valentini, Simon Arridge (2011) <i></i> <i>Optical Tomography and Spectroscopy of Tissue IX,</i> <i></i> : <br/>

Fluorescence Diffuse Optical Tomography with structured light is demonstrated using multiple views. Reconstructions from simulated and experimental data sets is carried out.

Context and objectives In the context of fluorescence diffuse optical tomography, the time-resolved approach was shown to improve the reconstruction quality compared to the continuous-wave approach when adopting the transmittance configuration. However, the improvement seriously decreases in the presence of noise. The scope of this paper is to investigate the additional value of the time-resolved ...<br/><br/>Nicolas Ducros, Cosimo D’Andrea, Andrea Bassi, Françoise Peyrin (2011) <i>IRBM</i> <i></i> <i>http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1959031811000777</i> 32: 4 243-250<br/>

We report on the experimental demonstration of a fast reconstruction method for multiview fluorescence diffuse optical tomography by using a wavelet-based data compression. We experimentally demonstrate that the use of data compression combined with the multiview approach makes it possible to perform a fast reconstruction of high quality.

We present a fast reconstruction method for fluorescence optical tomography with structured illumination.

In the context of fluorescence diffuse optical tomography, determining the optimal way to exploit the time-resolved information has been receiving much attention and different features of the time-resolved signals have been introduced. In this article, the authors revisit and generalize the notion of feature, considering the projection of the measurements onto some basis functions. This leads the ...<br/><br/>Nicolas Ducros, Anabela Da Silva, Jean-Marc Dinten, Chandra Sekhar Seelamantula, Michael Unser, Françoise Peyrin (2010) <i>Med Phys</i> <i></i> <i></i> 37: 6 2890-2900<br/>

A simple and fast time-domain method for localizing inclusions, fluorescent optical probes or absorbers, is presented. The method offers new possibilities for situations where complete tomographic measurements are not permitted by the examined object, for example in endoscopic examination of the human prostate or the oesophagus.

This paper addresses the inverse problem of time-resolved (fluorescence) diffuse optical tomography from temporal moments of the measurements. A methodology that enables one to provide fairly comparable reconstructions is presented. The proposed reconstruction methodology is applied to infinite medium synthetic phantoms in the transmission geometry.

This paper deals with the problem of time-resolved fluorescence diffuse optical tomography. We propose a new reconstruction scheme based on a multi-resolution approximation of the time-resolved signals. The underlying basis functions are exponential B-splines that are matched to the decay of fluorescence signals. We illustrate the applicability of the method on phantom data.<br/><br/>Nicolas Ducros, Anabela Da Silva, Jean-Marc Dinten, Chandra Sekhar Seelamantula, Michael Unser, Françoise Peyrin (2009) <i></i> <i>6th IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging : From Nano to Macro</i> <i></i> : <br/>

The problem of fluorescence diffuse optical tomography consists in localizing fluorescent markers from near-infrared light measurements. Among the different available acquisition modalities, the time-resolved modality is expected to provide measurements of richer information content. To extract this information, the moments of the time-resolved measurements are often considered.

Within the diffusion approximation, we recently shown that the classical measurable quantity models can lead to significant deviations.

Photon density and photon flux are widely used to model the measurable quantity in diffuse optical tomography problems. However, it is not these two quantities that are actually measured, but rather the radiance accepted by the detection system. We provide a theoretical analysis of the model deviations related to the choice of the measurable quantity-either photon density or flux.
