Recently, a novel measurement setup has been introduced to photoacoustic tomography, that collects data in the form of projections of the full 3D acoustic pressure distribution at a certain time instant. Existing imaging algorithms for this…
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…
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…
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…
In an inhomogeneously illuminated photoacoustic image, important information like vascular geometry is not readily available when only the initial pressure is reconstructed. To obtain the desired information, algorithms for image…
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…
