Ultrasound sensor arrays for photoacoustic tomography (PAT) are investigated that create
line projections of the pressure generated in an object by pulsed light illumination …

In this paper we describe a method for quantitative photoacoustic tomography (qPAT) based
on the photon radiative transfer equation (RTE) coupled with the Helmholtz photoacoustic …

Purpose: Image quantification in optoacoustic tomography implies the use of accurate
forward models of excitation, propagation, and detection of optoacoustic signals while …

A microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)-based photoacoustic imaging system is
reported for the first time. In this system, the MEMS-based light scanning subsystem and a …

Photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) is an important imaging tool that can noninvasively
visualize the anatomical structure of living animals. However, the limited scanning area …

The tubular structures and dendritic distributions of blood vessels emit anisotropic
photoacoustic (PA) signals with different intensities and frequency components at different …

The frequency response of fiber optic line detectors is investigated in the presented paper.
An analytical model based on oblique scattering of elastic waves is used to calculate the …

Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can readily report on changes in blood volume and
oxygenation. However, it has proved more problematic to measure real-time changes in …

A device for three-dimensional (3-D) photoacoustic tomography with resolution in the range
of tens of micrometers is presented that uses a light beam for interferometric detection of …

Photoacoustic microscope (PAM) with a low-optical NA suffers from a limited view along the
optical axis, due to the coherent cancellation of acoustic pressure waves after being excited …
