Integrated diffuse optical tomography and photoacoustic tomography: phantom validations
نویسندگان
چکیده
We designed, fabricated and tested a novel imaging system that fuses diffuse optical tomography (DOT) and photoacoustic tomography (PAT) in a single platform. This platform takes advantages of both DOT and PAT, and can potentially provide dual-modality two dimensional functional and cellular images of the breast quantitatively. Here we describe this integrated platform along with initial tissue phantom validations.

Quantitative photoacoustic imaging: correcting for heterogeneous light fluence distributions using diffuse optical tomography.
The specificity of molecular and functional photoacoustic (PA) images depends on the accuracy of the photoacoustic absorption spectroscopy. The PA signal is proportional to the product of the optical absorption coefficient and local light fluence; quantitative PA measurements of the optical absorption coefficient therefore require an accurate estimation of optical fluence. Light-modeling aided ...
متن کاملHandheld miniature probe integrating diffuse optical tomography with photoacoustic imaging through a MEMS scanning mirror
We describe a novel dual-modality imaging approach that integrates diffuse optical tomography (DOT) and photoacoustic imaging (PAI) through a miniaturized handheld probe based on microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) scanning mirror. We validate this dual-modal DOT/PAI approach using extensive phantom experiments, and demonstrate its application for tumor imaging using tumor-bearing mice system...

A novel combined photoacoustic tomography (PAT), optical resolution photoacoustic microscopy (ORPAM) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) instrument has been developed for imaging biological tissues. The system is based on the use of a Fabry-Perot (FP) polymer film ultrasound sensor. This is designed to be transparent to wavelengths between 590nm and 1200nm so that photoacoustic excitation la...
متن کاملTarget detection and quantification using a hybrid hand-held diffuse optical tomography and photoacoustic tomography system.
We present a photoacoustic tomography-guided diffuse optical tomography approach using a hand-held probe for detection and characterization of deeply-seated targets embedded in a turbid medium. Diffuse optical tomography guided by coregistered ultrasound, MRI, and x ray has demonstrated a great clinical potential to overcome lesion location uncertainty and to improve light quantification accura...
