Optical imaging has been used to image phantoms, animals, and humans. It offers the potential for the production of functional images of tissues, such as oxygenation of brain during stroke. Fast algorithms are needed to allow diagnostically useful images to be generated under realistic conditions, including the likelihood that transmission geometries will not be possible. We proposed a linear algorithm, while less than ideal, may allow rapid reconstruction of images and avoid the pitfalls of recursive, nonlinear solutions. Such techniques may also facilitate the use of varied but physiologic imaging geometries. We found that linear backprojection tomography is feasible for clinical use. Conversion of the present mechanically scanning device to a clinical scanner should be possible with retention of the current processing algorithms. Such a clinical scanner should ultimately be able to generate images in less than one minute with centimeter resolution at the center of living human brain.
