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…
Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is a non-invasive imaging modality that requires recovering the initial data of the wave equation from certain measurements of the solution outside the object. In the standard PAT measurement setup, the used…
Standard photoacoustic tomography (PAT) provides data that consist of time-dependent signals governed by the wave equation, which are measured on an observation surface. In contrast, the measured data from the recently invented full-field…
Photoacoustic tomography seeks to reconstruct an acoustic initial pressure distribution from the measurement of the ultrasound waveforms. Conventional methods assume a-prior knowledge of the sound speed distribution, which practically is…
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…
Image reconstruction in photoacoustic tomography relies on an accurate knowledge of the speed of sound in the target. However, the speed of sound distribution is not generally known, which may result in artefacts in the reconstructed…
We investigate the inverse source problem for the wave equation, arising in photo- and thermoacoustic tomography. There exist quite a few theoretically exact inversion formulas explicitly expressing solution of this problem in terms of the…
Photo-acoustic tomography is a coupled-physics (hybrid) medical imaging modality that aims to reconstruct optical parameters in biological tissues from ultrasound measurements. As propagating light gets partially absorbed, the resulting…
In this paper, we study the photoacoustic tomography problem for which we seek to recover both the initial state of the pressure field and the wave speed of the medium from the knowledge of a single boundary measurement. The goal is to…
We consider the inverse source problem of thermo- and photoacoustic tomography, with data registered on an open surface partially surrounding the source of acoustic waves. Under the assumption of constant speed of sound we develop an…
In photoacoustic tomography (PAT), a hybrid imaging modality that is based on the acoustic detection of optical absorption from biological tissue exposed to a pulsed laser, a short pulse laser generates an initial pressure proportional to…
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…
In most photoacoustic (PA) measurements, variations in speed-of-sound (SOS) of the subject are neglected under the assumption of acoustic homogeneity. Biological tissue with spatially heterogeneous SOS cannot be accurately reconstructed…
Photoacoustic image reconstruction often assumes that the restriction of the acoustic pressure on the detection surface is given. However, commonly used detectors often have a certain directivity and frequency dependence, in which case the…
The problem of image reconstruction in thermoacoustic tomography requires inversion of a generalized Radon transform, which integrates the unknown function over circles in 2D or spheres in 3D. The paper investigates implementation of the…
Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) uniquely combines the advantages of optical contrast with deep tissue penetration capability of acoustic waves, enabling imaging at depths of several centimeters. Conventional photoacoustic imaging methods have…
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…
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 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…
Practical applications of thermoacoustic tomography require numerical inversion of the spherical mean Radon transform with the centers of integration spheres occupying an open surface. Solution of this problem is needed (both in 2-D and…
