Analysis of the depth resolution limit of luminescence diffuse optical imaging

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We introduce a methodology to determine quantitatively the depth resolution limit in luminescence diffuse optical imaging. The approach is based on a Cramer–Rao statistical analysis, a noise model, and calculations of photon transport in tissues. We illustrate the method in the case of luminescence imaging in a brain–skull model, showing its potential applications in molecular imaging on small animals.
