    Abstract: Among the various aspects described herein is the provision of systems and methods of cross-ray ultrasound tomography. In some embodiments, a cross-ray ultrasound tomography system utilizes an ultrasonic emitter configured to emit one or more ultrasonic waves and an ultrasonic detector array configured to generate one or more radio frequency signals in response to detecting ultrasonic waves. The ultrasonic emitter and the ultrasonic detector array are configured such that the one or more ultrasonic waves are emitted by the ultrasonic emitter at an angle to a focal plane of the ultrasonic detector array.
