Abstract
This paper reports on the local reconstruction of a region-of-interest from 3D terahertz imaging data obtained via a quantum cascade laser (QCL). It is an important step in understanding the trade-off between wavelet based techniques and traditional filtered back projection (FBP) for local reconstruction of terahertz images. The advantage of local reconstruction is a reduction in measurement time. Segmentation algorithms are applied to the reconstructed images with low contrast for analysis of optical properties of target objects with complex contours.
