Abstract

The invention relates to a device for imaging the interior of a volume of an object using diffuse optical tomography and ultrasound. According to the invention a volume in which the object is accommodated and into which optical and ultrasound signals are sent is bound by a wall structure comprising entrance and exit positions for both the optical and ultrasound signals. In this way, the object can be positioned relative to the wall structure resulting in a well-defined measurement geometry. The invention improves the comparability of scans of an object that have been made at different points in time as the positioning of the object in a first scan can be precisely reproduced in a further scan relative to the wall structure.
