Abstract

Time-gated imaging and related techniques continue to attract interest because of their potential ability to resolve structures of interest in highly scattering material such as biological tissue. Time-gated imaging has been reported in various artificial scatterers, such as polystyrene spheres and non-dairy creamer, and in some biological tissue, such as chicken meat. To be accepted by the medical community as viable techniques, however, these methods must demonstrate meaningful imaging in real biological tissues of significant thickness.
