    摘要: 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.

    摘要: A measurement device applies a pulse current or a current of a plurality of frequencies to a laminated body having a plurality of layers having different electrical conductivities. The device acquires in-plane distribution information indicating distribution of a magnetic field of a first plane outside the laminated body. A processor generates three-dimensional magnetic field distribution information indicating a three-dimensional distribution of magnetic field on an outside of the laminated body based on the in-plane distribution information, and generates information on an inside of the laminated body by processing the three-dimensional magnetic field distribution information on the outside of the laminated body. The in-plane distribution information includes information indicating response characteristics to a change in the current applied by the current applying unit. In addition, the three-dimensional magnetic field distribution information on the outside of the laminated body includes frequency characteristics of the magnetic field.
