> What about with realtime NIRS with an (inverse?) scattering matrix?

FWIU Openwater's technology portfolio includes targeted ultrasound with e.g. NIRS and LSI/LSCI: https://www.openwater.health/technology

One of their demo videos explains how inverting the scattering caused by the occluding body yields the mass-density at least (?). [Radio]Spectroscopy and quantum crystallography may have additional insight for tissue identification with low-cost NIRS sensor data?
