A nested optimization framework for sound speed imaging and uncertainty estimation in ultrasound computed tomography via Mamba-regularized full waveform inversion.

Full-waveform inversion (FWI) for ultrasound computed tomography (USCT) has recently been investigated extensively for high-resolution sound-speed (SS) imaging. However, the nonconvexity of FWI hampers global convergence, yielding limited robustness and artifacts that constrain clinical applicability. Existing methods...
