Abstract
Optical imaging using independent component analysis (OPTICA) is enhanced to provide a high resolution cross section imaging of objects in a turbid medium by a backprojection technique. The performance is demonstrated by imaging a human breast model made of ex vivo human breast tissues. Cancerous site of 5mm size is detected at the midplane of the 33mm thick breast model. The reconstructed cross section image compares favorably with pathology findings.
