Abstract(in English) Due to the strong scattering of biological tissue, a beam of light propagates in an off-axis area in the body. This makes the spatial resolution of the transillumination image significantly poor. To solve this problem, we propose a new technique to suppress this effect of scattering. By controlling the light propagation path in a scattering medium, we can obtain the near-axis component of the incident light beam. In experiments, the feasibility of the proposed principle was confirmed and the effectiveness was verified using a model-phantom of a biological body.
