Abstract: An imaging system includes a scattering assembly with a scattering medium positioned a first distance from an object to be imaged. The scattering medium includes a plurality of particles suspended in a suspension medium and at least one field source generating an electromagnetic field to manipulate an orientation, concentration, spatial distribution, and/or other properties of the plurality of particles. The imaging system further includes a detector including a plurality of detector elements positioned a second distance from the scattering medium and an image processing system configured to reconstruct an image of the object from an object image signal detected by the detector using object light scattered by the scattering medium and incident on the detector.
