photoacoustic tomography of the breast tissue with the use of a semispherical array and a planar scanning

摘要

The photoacoustic imaging is improved in that the transmit array 10, which is used in the photoacoustic imaging laterally relative to the tissue to be imaged is scanned, in that several tissue images 70, 71, 72, 73 in the case of a plurality of relative lateral positions are collected and in that a photo acoustic image 80 of the fabric is produced by combining of the images in the case of several relative lateral positions are received.
