Non-contact laser-ultrasonic subsurface thermography using waveform inversion by Hu, Lei

“…Conventional thermography methods in non-destructive testing, for example, infrared thermography, are applicable only to map the surface temperature which could not estimate the positions of the subsurface defects caused by high temperature. There has been some development of internal thermal imaging techniques in the medical field based on magnetic-resonance (MR) and X-ray. …”
