Reconstructed images from a breast containing a 10 mm diameter invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), including (a) the mammogram of the breast, (b) a diffuse transmittance image acquired by the OMCI EMCCD camera, (c) the cross-sectional image of the recovered HbT at z = 30 mm using only the adipose and fibroglandular compositional priors and MLSVD-derived detection patterns. We also show the overlay of the HbT image with the x-ray mammogram in (d) along with the image residual over reconstruction iterations (f). In (e), we show the \(\Delta\)HbT images assembled from 6\(\times\)6 image reconstructions – for each reconstruction, the maximum HbT difference between the image recovered with and without assuming a tumor in the center of the search grid, is displayed over the nodes within the corresponding search grid. In (a,b,d,e), a red circle indicates the radiologist-annotated tumor location according to the mammogram; a magenta star indicates the location with the highest HbT in (c–e).
