Photoacoustic tomography and the inversion of the circular Radon transform

Workshop on Bioimaging I, Wed, 14 Nov, 2007

Speaker: Markus Haltmeier

Abstract

Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is an
emerging hybrid imaging method for non-invasive
medical diagnosis and fully three-dimensional
visualization of biological probes.
Electromagnetic illumination induces acoustic waves
inside an object of interest.
If a cylindrical array of line detectors is used
to record acoustical data then PAT leads to the
mathematical problem of inverting the circular Radon
transform.

In this talk reconstruction algorithms for inversion of the circular Radon transform are derived and analyzed.
