Abstract
In this paper simulation studies of the ultrasound computerized tomography (CT) technique employing time of flight data is presented. An enhanced genetic algorithm based reconstruction technique is proposed that is capable of detecting multiple types of inclusions in the test specimen to be reconstructed. It is assumed that the physical properties of the inclusions are known a priori. The preliminary results of our algorithm for a simple configuration are found to be better than those reported with MART1. In addition to being able to identify inclusions of different materials, both the shape and location of the inclusions could be reconstructed using the proposed algorithm. The results are found to be consistent and satisfactory for a wide range of grid sizes and geometries of inclusion(s). Based on the regression analysis an empirical relation between the number of unknowns and the reconstruction time is found which enables one to predict the reconstruction time for higher resolutions.
