Diffraction Tomography
Encyclopedia
Diffraction tomography is an inverse scattering
technique used to find the shape of a scattering object by illuminating it with probing waves and recording the reflections. It is based on the diffraction slice theorem and assumes that the scatterer is weak. It is closely related to X-ray tomography.
Inverse scattering problem
In the physics field of of scattering theory, the inverse scattering problem is that of determining characteristics of an object based on data of how it scatters incoming radiation or particles....
