Diffraction tomography

Diffraction tomography is an imaging technique used to reconstruct the internal structure of an object from scattered waves, typically electromagnetic waves (like light or X-rays) or acoustic waves (like sound). The method is closely associated with the principles of diffraction, which describes how waves bend around obstacles and spread out after passing through narrow openings. ### Key Concepts: 1. **Scattered Waves**: When waves encounter an object, they can scatter in various directions depending on the object's properties.
