Extended Finite Element Method with Simplified Spherical Harmonics Approximation for the Forward Model of Optical Molecular Imaging
An extended finite element method (XFEM) for the forward model of 3D optical molecular imaging is developed with simplified spherical harmonics approximation (SPN). In XFEM scheme of SPN equations, the signed distance function is employed to accurately represent the internal tissue boundary, and the...
