Patent ID: 8563932

Claim:
A device for diffusion optical tomography, comprising: a sensing circuit having a plurality of light sources and a plurality of sensors, the light sources emitting light to an object, so that the object generates a plurality of optical signals in response to the light, and the sensors receive the optical signals generated by the object; and an optical tomography element electrically connected to the sensing circuit for reconstructing an image of the object based on the optical signals outputted by the sensing circuit, the optical tomography element comprising: a control unit for controlling the sensing circuit to emit light to the object using the light sources and to receive the optical signals generated by the object in response to the light by the sensors; a computation unit for receiving optical parameters set for the object based on commands of the control unit, and constructing an image model of the object using the optical parameters of the object, so as to perform decomposition calculation on the image model for output; and an image reconstruction unit for receiving the optical signals of the object outputted by the control unit and the decomposed image model outputted by the computation unit based on the commands of the control unit, and combining the decomposed image model and the optical signals to reconstruct the image of the object.
