  • Abstract
    In diffraction tomography an important problem is how accurately an image under a limited angle condition can be reconstructed. Here, a filtered maximum entropy image restoration method is proposed. In this technique a high-pass filter is applied to MEM+IR which the authors have proposed to emphasize the edge and prevent a decline in the quality of the reconstructed image. By using this method, simulation and experimental results show that it is possible to improve the quality of images more when compared with using MEM+IR
