Diffuse optical tomography

Definition: Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) refers to the use of a tomographic algorithm to reconstruct, at least (but not limited to) oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin concentrations volumetrically from multiple spatially distinct measurements. This 3D reconstruction can improve quantification and localization of cortical hemodynamics.
