INTRODUCTION
Abstract: Understanding wave propagation through a disordered scattering medium is a major challenge in wave physics, particularly for medical applications. A medium that scatters waves many times, mixes light information randomly and is considered opaque. Nevertheless, in such a medium, information is not lost. We present here a method for characterizing the response of a medium so as to be able to "see" an image through an opaque medium.
