The imaging telescope COMPTEL aboard the NASA Compton Observatory satellite has been demonstrated to be capable of imaging diffuse emission along the Galactic plane. Here we describe details of the imaging data spaces and methods to model the background. Different methods of imaging analysis are compared. Verification of consistency among these methods is a key factor in overall assessment of diffuse emission results. Source simulations and statistical analysis through the bootstrap method are applied to verify the significances of image structures.
