ABSTRACT:
An imaging system for imaging of a turbid medium comprises a radiation source to illuminate an object to be imaged. A detection system detects radiation from the object and includes a separation module which separates and distinguishes radiation components having respective wavelength ranges. An analysis module forms a comparison of respective radiation components. An image dataset is reconstructed on the basis of the comparison of respective radiation components. The comparison may involve the ratio of the levels of the high-wavelength radiation component to the low-wavelength radiation component, the relative difference of the levels of high-wavelength radiation component to the detected radiation, and the relative difference of the levels of the high-wavelength radiation component to the low-wavelength radiation component.
