Abstract :
A novel technique based on the antenna properties of a two-dimensional heterodyne detector array and the micrometre resolution capability of a modified microscope is proposed for the real-time optical imaging of objects hidden in a highly scattering medium. Objects 50 μm-wide were distinctly imaged through a 2 cm-thick highly scattering media
