contents Diffraction tomography is an inverse scattering technique used to reconstruct the spatial distribution of the material properties of a weakly scattering object. The object is exposed to radiation, typically light or ultrasound, and the scattered waves induced from different incident field angles are recorded. In conventional diffraction tomography, the incident wave is assumed to be a monochromatic plane wave, an unrealistic simplification in practical imaging scenarios. In this article, we extend conventional diffraction tomography by introducing the concept of customized illumination scenarios, with a pronounced emphasis on imaging with focused beams. We present a new forward model that incorporates a generalized incident field and extends the classical Fourier diffraction theorem to the use of this incident field. This yields a new two-step reconstruction process which we comprehensively evaluate through numerical experiments.
