Abstract
An imaging method includes a step of radiating a wave to a target object, a step of receiving a scattered wave as a result of the wave being scattered at the target object, and a step of reconstructing an image regarding internal information of the target object on the basis of scattered wave data indicating the scattered wave. In the step of reconstructing the image, a reconstruction function is derived by solving a partial differential equation by using the scattered wave data and an analysis model indicating a shape, and the image regarding the internal information of the target object is reconstructed by using the reconstruction function. Here, the partial differential equation is an equation satisfied by the reconstruction function for reconstructing the image regarding the internal information of the target object.
