In this paper, the research on the inverse problems in elastodynamics is summarized. Some typical and new researching results are presented, which are obtained from the inversion of ray theory, the Inverse-Born method of wave equation, the inversion of transmission matrix, the inversion of large perturbational medium parameters and the inversion of interface geometrical parameters, respectively. Some problems in this field are produced in the approaching research.
