Abstract

A snake photon detection based imaging technique developed by our group is explained in details and its performances compared with those obtained by other experimentalists. The technique is based on simultaneous application of time and spatial-mode selection. We also show that in these very particular working conditions commonly used plastic tissue phantoms display non tissue-like scattering properties.
