Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) performed using deep-learning allows high-speed reconstruction of tissue properties and could thereby enable image-guided scanning, e.g., to enhance clinical breast imaging. Previously published models are geometry-specific and, therefore, require extensive data generation training for each use case, restricting the scanning protocol at point use. A transformer-based architecture is proposed overcome these obstacles that encode spatially unstructured DOT measurements, enabling a single trained model handle arbitrary pathways measurement density.
