Reconstruction Formulas for Photoacoustic Sectional Imaging
نویسندگان
چکیده
The literature on reconstruction formulas for photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is vast. The various reconstruction formulas differ by used measurement devices and geometry on which the data are sampled. In standard photoacoustic imaging (PAI), the object under investigation is illuminated uniformly. Recently, sectional photoacoustic imaging techniques, using focusing techniques for initializing and measuring the pressure along a plane, appeared in the literature. This paper surveys existing and provides novel exact reconstruction formulas for sectional photoacoustic imaging.

Photoacoustic Sectional Imaging and Reconstruction Formulas for a Single Scattering Model
We consider photoacoustic sectional imaging experiments. Opposed to standard photoacoustic imaging (see e.g. [9, 8, 6, 10] for some mathematical and physical review papers), where the detectors record sets of two-dimensional projection data over time, from which the three-dimensional imaging data can be reconstructed, in sectional imaging, a single scan procedure is implemented to be able to re...
متن کاملModelling the Effect of Focusing Detectors in Photoacoustic Sectional Imaging
To effectively use photoacoustic tomography to obtain cross-sectional images, a combination of a focused laser illumination and focusing acoustic detectors is used. In this work, we discuss how to incorporate cylindrically shaped focusing detectors in the mathematical modelling of photoacoustics and derive approximative reconstruction formulas. Moreover, we show how such focusing detectors comb...
متن کاملPhotoacoustic and Coupled Physics Imaging
There exist various reconstruction formulas and back-projection algorithms for photoacoustic imaging (see the survey [4] and the references therein). Also different measurement devices for the ultrasound pressure have been suggested. Most common are small detectors based on materials, which exhibit a strong piezoelectric effect and can be immersed safely in water (i.e. polymers such as PVDF). I...
متن کاملExact Series Reconstruction in Photoacoustic Tomography with Circular Integrating Detectors
A method for photoacoustic tomography is presented that uses circular integrals of the acoustic wave for the reconstruction of a three-dimensional image. Image reconstruction is a two-step process: In the first step data from a stack of circular integrating are used to reconstruct the circular projection of the source distribution. In the second step the inverse circular Radon transform is appl...
