Abstract:
A method reconstructing optical properties of a medium uses a reconstruction system having a radiation source illuminating a medium and a detector receiving a signal emitted by the medium. This method includes establishing, for a source-detector pair, a first distribution of a signal received by the detector for a reference medium, the received signal emitted by the reference medium subsequent to the illumination of the medium by the source, determining, for the source-detector pair, a first modeling function of a light scattering signal between the source and the detector in the reference medium, establishing, for the source-detector pair, a second distribution of a signal received by the detector for the medium, the received signal being emitted by the medium to be characterized subsequent to illumination of said medium by the source, and computing a signal corrected as a function of the first modeling function and of the second distribution.
