AB - We demonstrate that acoustic full-waveform inversion (FWI), using transmitted ultrasound, is able to reconstruct accurate high-resolution images of the human brain in three dimensions in a way that would be entirely familiar to most geophysicists. Imaging the brain through the bones of the skull has close analogies to imaging sedimentary sequences beneath complex salt bodies. Here we use adaptive waveform inversion to build the skull, and use conventional FWI to recover the brain, a similar approach to that used for sub-salt imaging. This new form of non-invasive neuroimaging has the potential for rapid diagnosis of stroke and head trauma, and for the routine monitoring of a wide range of neurological conditions.
