Photoacoustic Tomography with a Ring Ultrasound Transducer: A Comparison of Different Illumination Strategies
Photoacoustic (PA) imaging is a methodology that uses the absorption of short laser pulses by endogenous or exogenous chromophores within human tissue, and the subsequent generation of acoustic waves acquired by an ultrasound (US) transducer, to form an image that can provide functional and molecula...
