| Abstract | Biomedical imaging has developed into the level of molecular imaging. Bioluminescence tomography (BLT), as an optical imaging modality, is a rapidly developing new and promising field. So far, much of the theoretical analysis of BLT is based on a diffusion approximation equation for media with constant refractive index. In this paper, we study the BLT problem for media with spatially varying refractive index. We introduce a general framework with Tikhonov regularization for this purpose, present its well-posedness and establish error bounds for its numerical solution by the finite element method. Numerical results are reported on simulations of the BLT problem for media with spatially varying refractive index. |
