Abstract
The capabilities of ultrasound optical tomography (UOT) is investigated through Monte Carlo simulations on realistic breast tissue phantoms constructed using the OpenVCT platform. This work indicates that UOT is a method capable of distinguishing malignant tumor tissue from benign glandular tissue deep inside the breast, despite the natural variations of adipose and glandular compartments within a breast or between breasts with different volume breast densities.
