  • Abstract
    This paper presents a recursive ultrasonic tomographic imaging method using the propagation and back propagation for solving a Helmholtz equation with a fixed frequency. The proposed algorithm recursively processes data collected on the eight boundaries of an octagon in a circular mode. Using numerical examples, we demonstrate that the proposed algorithm results in high quality images with fast convergence.
