Abstract
A device and method of acquiring image data from a turbid medium using a diffuse optical tomography device including irradiating the turbid medium at a plurality of first spatial positions, collecting light emanating from the turbid medium at a plurality of second spatial positions, splitting the light collected from each second spatial position into at least two optical channels, measuring the intensity of the split light in each optical channel of the at least two optical channels using photo detectors, and reconstructing an image of the turbid medium from the measured intensities.
