Nondestructive Evaluation of Biological Tissue with Photoacoustic Imaging
Photoacoustic computed tomography (PACT)
- Deep tissue imaging (2-10 cm)
- Resolution 100-200 micron
- Small anima brain imaging, tumor imaging
Photoacoustic microscopy (PAM)
- High resolution imaging (2-50 micron)
- Vasculature imaging on skin, brain
Deep learning assisted photoacoustic image reconstruction
- Improves tangential resolution 5-10 times
- Improves imaging speed 2-5 times
Contrast agent and molecular imaging
- Testing of various contrast agents in the near infra-red window
- Targeted molecular imaging
