This paper concerns the reconstruction of the scattering coefficient in a two-dimensional transport equation from angularly averaged measurements when the probing source is isotropic and time-harmonic. This is a practical setting in the medical imaging modality called Optical Tomography. As the modulation frequency of the source increases, we show that the reconstruction of the scattering coefficient improves. More precisely, as the frequency $\omega$ increases, we show that all frequencies of the scattering coefficient lower than $b$ are reconstructed stably with an accuracy that improves as $\omega$ increases and $b$ decreases. The proofs are based on an analysis of the single scattering singularities of the transport equation and on careful analyses of oscillatory integrals by stationary phase arguments.
