Depth discrimination in diffuse optical transmission imaging by planar scanning off-axis fibers: initial applications to optical mammography.

We present a method for depth discrimination in parallel-plate, transmission mode, diffuse optical imaging. The method is based on scanning a set of detector pairs, where the two detectors in each pair are separated by a distance δDi along direction δ D i within the x-y scanning plane. A given optic...
