摘要:
A method for measuring an internal property distribution which includes making measurement light incident from a plurality of light incidence positions on a surface of a measured object, detecting the measurement light that has passed through the object, successively or simultaneously, at at least one light detection position out of a plurality of light detection positions on the surface of the object. A plurality of measurement values obtained by a plurality of combinations of the light incidence position and said light detection position are extracted. A mean value of the measured values are calculated to obtain a reference value and a change amount of a predetermined internal property in each of the plurality of regions of the object are calculated using the plurality of measured values obtained. The reference value thereby establishing an internal property change amount distribution in the object.

An arithmetic control mechanism of the present optical CT apparatus calculates first light densities in output portions of an object on the basis of a numerical analysis method, when it is assumed that the object is divided into fine segments and all segments have the same value as an absorption coefficient under predetermined conditions equivalent to an actual measurements; and calculates second light densities in the output portions on the basis of the method, when it is assumed that sequentially selected one of the segments has a specific value as an absorption coefficient under the predetermined conditions. Further, the mechanism calculates, as influences of the segments, ratios of the first to the second light densities, thereby obtaining an influence matrix corresponding to an arrangement of the segments; calculates relative ratios of the third light densities in the output portions on the basis of the actual measurements to the fitst light densities, thereby obtaining a relative ratio matrix corresponding to arrangements of input and output portions of the object; and performs a matrix calculation by using the influence matrix and the relative ratio matrix, thereby obtaining feature data of the segments for reconstructing a tomographic image of the object.
