Abstract: | An algebraic reconstructive tomography algorithm for mapping the internal temperature field in q section of a biological object is adapted for use in a multichannel scanning acoustic thermotomograph. For some types of thermodynamic temperature distribution, using the computer simulation method, the distributions of the acoustic brightness temperature are obtained allowing for the antenna system geometry and damping in the biological medium.
