A finite-difference contrast source inversion method
We present a contrast source inversion (CSI) algorithm using a finite-difference (FD) approach as its backbone for reconstructing the unknown material properties of inhomogeneous objects embedded in a known inhomogeneous background medium. Unlike the CSI method using the integral equation (IE) approach, the FD-CSI method can readily employ an arbitrary inhomogeneous medium as its background. Th...
متن کاملElastic frequency-domain finite-difference contrast source inversion method
In this work, we extend the finite-difference contrast source inversion (FDCSI) method to the frequency-domain elastic wave equations, where the parameters describing the subsurface structure are simultaneously reconstructed. The FD-CSI method is an iterative nonlinear inversion method, which exhibits several strengths. First, the finite-difference operator only relies on the background media a...
متن کاملA Hierarchical Classification Method for Breast Tumor Detection
Introduction Breast cancer is the second cause of mortality among women. Early detection of it can enhance the chance of survival. Screening systems such as mammography cannot perfectly differentiate between patients and healthy individuals. Computer-aided diagnosis can help physicians make a more accurate diagnosis. Materials and Methods Regarding the importance of separating normal and abnorm...
متن کاملImaging of Biomedical Data Using a Multiplicative Regularized Contrast Source Inversion Method
In this paper, the recently developed multiplicative regularized contrast source inversion method is applied to microwave biomedical applications. The inversion method is fully iterative and avoids solving any forward problem in each iterative step. In this way, the inverse scattering problem can efficiently be solved. Moreover, the recently developed multiplicative regularizer allows us to app...
متن کاملA Visualization Method for Breast Cancer Detection Using Microwaves
This paper proposes a qualitative approach to the inverse scattering problem of microwave tomography for breast cancer detection. In a 2D framework, the tumor inside the breast is regarded as an unknown scatterer placed inside an inhomogeneous and lossy background, formed by skin and fat. We firstly present in detail the mathematical formulation of the method, which is based on the reciprocity ...
