    Abstract A method of measuring the mean time of flight, ?t(i)? , spent by photons inside a generic volume element of a highly diffusing medium is presented. The method comes from a general property of the radiative transfer equation and is based on relative measurements of cw attenuation that correspond to small variations of the absorption coefficient inside the volume element. By use of a liquid phantom and small gels with known optical properties it was possible to measure ?t(i)? with good accuracy, even when it was only a few picoseconds long. The results were in good agreement with Monte Carlo results.

    Abstract A Monte Carlo procedure has been developed to study photon migration through highly scattering nonhomogeneous media. When two scaling relationships are used, the temporal response when scattering or absorbing inhomogeneities are introduced can be evaluated in a short time from the results of only one simulation carried out for the homogeneous medium. Examples of applications to the imaging of defects embedded into a diffusing slab, a model usually used for optical mammography, are given. Comparisons with experimental results show the correctness of the results obtained.
