Figure 7.
Iso-surface plots of the reconstructed μaxf values for the in vivo reconstruction using simulated data for (A) Case #1, where a 0.45 cm3 (0.95 cm diameter) fluorescent target placed at (x,y,z)=(2.5,0,0) cm to roughly estimate the 6 o’clock position (to mimic the in vivo experimental case #6) about 2.5 cm deep in the breast tissue, (B) Case #2, where a 0.45 cm3 (0.95 cm diameter) fluorescent target placed at (x,y,z)=(2.5,-4,-1) cm to roughly estimate the 4 o’clock position (to mimic the in vivo experimental case #7) about 2.5 cm deep in the breast tissue, and (C) Case #3, where a 0.23 cm3 (0.76 cm diameter) fluorescent target placed at (x,y,z)=(2.5,2.5,-1) cm to roughly estimate the 8 o’clock position (to mimic the in vivo experimental case #8) about 2.5 cm deep in the breast tissue. The black circle represents the true target location that was placed with respect to the clock positions (shown by the dashed cross-wire).
