In this article, we revisit iterative methods for solving the inverse problem of photoacoustic tomography in free space. Recently, there have been interesting developments on explicit formulations of the adjoint operator, demonstrating that…
In this article, we study several reconstruction methods for the inverse source problem of photoacoustic tomography (PAT) with spatially variable sound speed and damping. The backbone of these methods is the adjoint operators, which we…
In this paper we study the problem of photoacoustic inversion in a weakly attenuating medium. We present explicit reconstruction formulas in such media and show that the inversion based on such formulas is moderately ill--posed. Moreover,…
The standard approach for photoacoustic imaging with variable speed of sound is time reversal, which consists in solving a well-posed final-boundary value problem for the wave equation backwards in time. This paper investigates the…
Almost all known image reconstruction algorithms for photoacoustic and thermoacoustic tomography assume that the acoustic waves leave the region of interest after a finite time. This assumption is reasonable if the reflections from the…
Photoacoustic tomography is a hybrid imaging technique that combines high optical tissue contrast with high ultrasound resolution. Direct reconstruction methods such as filtered backprojection, time reversal and least squares suffer from…
In this paper we consider a mathematical model for photoacoustic imaging which takes into account attenuation due to thermodynamic dissipation. The propagation of acoustic (compressional) waves is governed by a scalar wave equation coupled…
The reconstruction task in photoacoustic tomography can vary a lot depending on measured targets, geometry, and especially the quantity we want to recover. Specifically, as the signal is generated due to the coupling of light and sound by…
Applying standard algorithms to sparse data problems in photoacoustic tomography (PAT) yields low-quality images containing severe under-sampling artifacts. To some extent, these artifacts can be reduced by iterative image reconstruction…
The attenuation of ultrasound waves in photoacoustic and thermoacoustic imaging presents an important drawback in the applicability of these modalities. This issue has been addressed previously in the applied and theoretical literature, and…
Photoacoustic computed tomography (PACT), also known as optoacoustic tomography, is an emerging imaging technique that holds great promise for biomedical imaging. PACT is a hybrid imaging method that can exploit the strong endogenous…
Quantitative photoacoustic tomography is an emerging imaging technique aimed at estimating the distribution of optical parameters inside tissues from photoacoustic images, which are formed by combining optical information and ultrasonic…
Photoacoustic tomography is an emerging medical imaging technology whose primary aim is to map the high-contrast optical properties of biological tissues by leveraging high-resolution ultrasound measurements. Mathematically, this can be…
We consider image reconstruction in full-field photoacoustic tomography, where 2D projections of the full 3D acoustic pressure distribution at a given time T>0 are collected. We discuss existing results on the stability and uniqueness of…
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…
In photoacoustic tomography (PAT), the computation of the initial pressure distribution within an object from its time-dependent boundary measurements over time is considered. This problem can be approached from two well-established points…
In this article we study the inverse problem of thermoacoustic tomography (TAT) on a medium with attenuation represented by a time- convolution (or memory) term, and whose consideration is motivated by the modeling of ultrasound waves in…
Existing approaches to image reconstruction in photoacoustic computed tomography (PACT) with acoustically heterogeneous media are limited to weakly varying media, are computationally burdensome, and/or cannot effectively mitigate the…
The development of efficient and accurate image reconstruction algorithms is one of the cornerstones of computed tomography. Existing algorithms for quantitative photoacoustic tomography currently operate in a two-stage procedure: First an…
Most reconstruction algorithms for photoacoustic imaging assume that the pressure field is measured by ultrasound sensors placed on a detection surface. However, such sensors do not measure pressure exactly due to their non-uniform…
