Abstract
Preliminary results are presented of a study of the spatial resolution performance of a system which produces transmission images of highly scattering objects by recording and discriminating between the times-of- flight of transmitted photons. This system is being developed as a possible means of screening for breast cancer using harmless doses of visible or near-infrared radiation.
