Study of the internal structure of bulky strongly scattering media using diffuse optical introscopy
The experimental setup has been developed, a phantom that simulates a cylindrical bioobject with an axial reflective inclusion has been made and the method of introscopic research has been developed with a different number of mutual projections «source-detector». A correlation between the quality of the resolution of the system and the number of «source-detector» projections were found. It is shown that at least 16 spatial projections are required for bulk reflecting inhomogeneities with a diameter less than 1.0 mm. Experimental setup and research methodology allows detecting spatial inhomogeneities at a ratio of the object diameters and the reflective inclusion - 1:20.
