    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Imaging
    • Medical Physics
    • Optical Imaging

    Background:

    • Bioluminescence tomography (BLT) enables disease diagnosis, therapy monitoring, and drug development by localizing and quantifying light-emitting sources in vivo.
    • Advancing BLT to a tomographic framework is crucial for improved resolution and accuracy in biological imaging.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To establish a direct linear relationship between surface photon density and bioluminescence source distribution using the finite-element method.
    • To develop and validate a novel reconstruction algorithm for accurate bioluminescence source recovery.
    • To enhance numerical stability and efficiency by incorporating a priori knowledge of permissible source regions.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized the finite-element method based on the diffusion approximation for photon propagation modeling in biological tissues.
    • Developed a novel reconstruction algorithm incorporating a priori knowledge to define source regions.
    • Employed numerical simulations with a mouse chest phantom and conducted physical phantom experiments.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed BLT algorithm in simulations, showing accurate source localization and density estimation.
    • Validated the algorithm's robustness against noise.
    • Successfully identified the location and power of two light sources in a physical mouse chest phantom experiment.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed BLT algorithm offers a stable and efficient method for localizing and quantifying bioluminescent sources in small animals.
    • The approach shows significant potential for applications in disease diagnosis, therapy monitoring, and drug development.
    • Incorporating a priori knowledge effectively improves the performance and reliability of bioluminescence tomography.
