M5. Inverse Problems in Hybrid Imaging Modalities

During the last two decades, a plethora of hybrid (or coupled physics) tomography modalities has been invented and developed. All such techniques exploit physical coupling between two different types of waves. Typically, one sort of waves (for example, ultrasound) provides high resolution and stability, while the other type (frequently, of electromagnetic nature) supplies the resulting hybrid modality with high sensitivity to biological properties of interest.

A wide variety of existing coupled physics modalities leads to a large number of new and exciting mathematical problems waiting to be solved. The mini-symposium will bring together experts on theoretical and algorithmic foundations of the photo- and thermoacoustic tomography, ultrasound-modulated optical tomography, acoustoelectric tomography, various magnetoacoustoelectric modalities and other hybrid techniques.
