Abstract

Performing freehand scanning imaging includes transforming a single spatial location with nonuniform input data using NDFT for one spatial location to a singular spectral estimation. Performing freehand scanning imaging also includes translating the singular spectral estimation to z, wherein zis a common value of z for which to later recombine data for layer l, and where l begins at zero. Performing freehand scanning imaging further includes performing Inverse Spatial Fourier Transform on the translated spectrum to produce a translated data in a x- and y-spatial domain at z=z. Performing freehand scanning imaging also includes outputting 3D translated data to an N-dimensional regularization from all measured locations, where all measured locations are regularized data resulting from a combined sum of all measured contributions, and outputting the regularized data to a SAFT algorithm to produce images layer-by-layer, whereby the process is repeated for subsequent layers layer-by-layer.
