Simultaneous recovery of tissue physiological and acoustic properties and the criteria for wavelength selection in multispectral photoacoustic tomography

摘要

We present an algorithm to directly reconstruct chromophore concentrations and acoustic velocity bynmultispectral photoacoustic tomography. We also derive the criterions to minimize the cross talk for simul-ntaneous recovery of chromophore concentrations and acoustic velocity using multispectral photoacousticndata. We found that the image quality and the separation between acoustic velocity and different chro-nmophore concentrations strongly depend on the measurement wavelengths of incident laser source. © 2009nOptical Society of America
