Optical Property Reconstruction of a Two-Layer Diffusive Medium from Single-Distance Time-Resolved Measurements

We robustly and accurately estimated the absorption coefficient of the second layer in a two-layer tissue phantom by applying an optimal estimation method, including a priori information, to single-distance time-resolved measurements.
