Methods of imaging objects with diffused light. The methods preferably can comprise the steps of illuminating the object with a source of light which can be scattered by the object, collecting the scattered light with a detector from multiple positions surrounding the object, measuring a mean free path of photons scattered from the object from the collected scattered light, and determining a diffusion constant for the photons scattered from the object as a function of the measured mean free path, and determining in the transmission of the photons between the source and the detector as a function of the diffusion constant, thereby imaging the object. Methods and apparatus described herein efficiently image objects with diffuse light by taking into account source-detector orientation and boundary effects. |
