Tomographic optical breast imaging guided by three-dimensional mammography
Ang Li,Eric L. Miller,Misha E. Kilmer,Thomas J. Brukilacchio,Tina Chaves,Jonathan J. Stott,Quan Zhang,Tao Wu,MaryAnn Chorlton,Richard H. Moore,Daniel B. Kopans,David A. Boas +11 more
TL;DR: A modified Tikhonov regularization method is introduced to include three-dimensional x-ray mammography as a prior in the diffuse optical tomography reconstruction and an approach is suggested to find the optimal regularization parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coregistered tomographic x-ray and optical breast imaging: initial results.
Quan Zhang,Thomas J. Brukilacchio,Ang Li,Jonathan J. Stott,Tina Chaves,Elizabeth M. C. Hillman,Tao Wu,MaryAnn Chorlton,Elizabeth A. Rafferty,Richard H. Moore,Daniel B. Kopans,David A. Boas +11 more
TL;DR: These results demonstrate that strictly coregistered x-ray and optical images enable a detailed comparison of the two images, which will ultimately lead to a better understanding of the relationship between the functional contrast afforded by optical imaging and the structural contrast provided byx-ray imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative spectroscopic diffuse optical tomography of the breast guided by imperfect a priori structural information.
TL;DR: The accuracy with which lesions can be characterized given a physiologically realistic situation in which the background architecture of the breast is heterogeneous yet highly structured is studied.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Estimating the average breast optical properties from transmission measurements despite intrinsic tissue heterogeneity: a Monte Carlo Simulation Study
Quan Zhang,Jonathan J. Stott,Thomas J. Brukilacchio,Ang Li,Tina Chaves,Anand Kumar,Tao Wu,MaryAnn Chorlton,Elizabeth A. Rafferty,Richard H. Moore,Daniel B. Kopans,David A. Boas +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the average optical properties of a heterogeneous medium are estimated using a single source-detector pair method and simulations show that multi-distance methods assuming homogeneous structure suffer from systematic modeling errors while single source detector pair methods provide a more meaningful estimate.
