Photoacoustic imaging is a promising method for visualizing biological tissues with optical absorbers. This article provides an overview of the rapidly developing field of photoacoustic imaging. Photoacoustics, the physical basis of photoacoustic imaging, is analyzed briefly. The merits of photoacoustic technology, compared with optical imaging and ultrasonic imaging, are described. Various imaging techniques are also discussed, including scanning tomography, computed tomography and original detection of photoacoustic imaging. Finally, some biomedical applications of photoacoustic imaging are summarized.read more

An automated breast ultrasound scanner with integrated photoacoustic tomography
TL;DR: This work is moving towards a fiber-based, localized illumination geometry which is fixed relative to the transducer, and reduces overall light exposure at the tissue surface, allowing higher light intensity per acquisition and allowing higher absorber contrast, while remaining below safe exposure thresholds.
Properties of Some Integral Transforms Arising in Tomography
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide inversion formulas for Radon-type transforms for radio tomography, single scattering optical tomography (SOMO), photoacoustic tomography with line detectors, and Compton camera imaging.

Acoustically penetrable optical reflector for photoacoustic tomography.
TL;DR: The results demonstrated that the APOR successfully allowed the transducer to detector photoacoustic signals without affecting the light illumination, and can be readily implemented in various PAT systems.

Multi-source quantitative photoacoustic tomography with detector response function and limited-view scanning
Feng Jing,Zhou Weifeng,Gao Hao +2 more
TL;DR: A direct image reconstruction method is proposed that incorporates SIR, EIR and limited-view scanning in a coupled opto-acoustic forward model, regularizes the nonlinear QPAT data fidelity with tensor framelet sparsity, and then solves theQPAT problem with Quasi-Newton method based alternating direction method of multipliers.
