Outline of Final Research Achievements

One of the imaging modalities considered in this research project is diffuse optical tomography using near-infrared light for monitoring brain activity. We achieved a fast and reliable numerical method for light propagation in tissue with multiple scattering. In the numerical simulation, problems with approximately one billion degrees of freedom were processed, and the convergence of numerical solution with suitable norm was proved. We also proposed an imaging algorithm from near-infrared light, and showed its numerical realization. X-ray computerized tomography (CT) is also known as a practical imaging modalities, and mathematical algorithm of X-ray CT from local measurement was established. The algorithm is estimated with experimental measurement data, and its effectiveness was shown.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

医用イメージングでの散乱信号の伝播は,輻射輸送方程式とよばれる数理モデルで表される.これは微分積分方程式であり,本研究では数値的取り扱い手法,得に数値シミュレーション結果の正しさを保証する方法と高速計算手法を確立した.また局所観測からのエックス線トモグラフィでは,約100年の間,研究開発の中心であった従来の積分方程式から,微分方程式へと数理モデルを転換して数値的手法を確立したことが大きな点である.
