Multiscale visualization of human anatomical structures is revolutionizing clinical diagnosis
and treatment. As one of the most promising clinical diagnostic techniques, photoacoustic …

BACKGROUND More than a century ago, Alexander G. Bell first observed the photoacoustic
effect. He found that absorption of electromagnetic waveforms, such as radio frequency (rf) …

Current photoacoustic systems face a technical bottleneck in terms of image resolution at the
clinical level. Therefore, various methods in the optical system are proposed for improving …

Many approaches in machine learning require a measure of distance between data points.
Traditionally, practitioners would choose a standard distance metric (Euclidean, City-Block …

This chapter discusses the principles and applications of an emerging biomedical imaging
technique termed photoacoustic imaging. The basic principle centers on the physics of …
