High-Performance Biomedical Photoacoustic Tomography

Biomedical optics,photoacoustic tomography,photoacoustic imaging

Based on the energy conversion of light into sound, photoacoustic imaging is an emerging noninvasive biomedical imaging technique and has experienced explosive developments in the past two decades. As a hybrid imaging technique, photoacoustic imaging possesses distinguished optical absorption contrast as in optical imaging and superb spatial resolution as in ultrasound imaging. It can visualize biological samples at scales from organelles, cells, tissues, organs to small-animal whole body and has found unique applications in a range of biomedical fields. In this presentation, I will present our most recent progress in photoacoustic imaging, including photoacoustic tomography and photoacoustic microscopy. The work advances both the technology and applications of photoacoustic imaging in biomedicine.
