Abstract:
We describe a novel scanning approach for miniaturized photoacoustic tomography (PAT), based on fan-shaped scanning of a single transducer at one or two discrete positions. This approach is tested and evaluated using several phantom and animal experiments. The results obtained show that this new scanning approach provides high image quality in the configuration of miniaturized handheld or endoscopic PAT with improved effective field of view and penetration depth.
