Optimized light delivery probe using ball lenses for co-registered photoacoustic and ultrasound endo-cavity subsurface imaging
An optimized hand-held photoacoustic and ultrasound probe suitable for endo-cavity tumor subsurface imaging was designed and evaluated. Compared to previous designs, the prototype probe, consisting of four 1 mm multi-mode optical fibers attached with 1.5 mm diameter ball-shaped fiber tips sandwiched...
