Problems solved by technology

At present, there are photoacoustic tomography with phased focusing detection, tomography based on inverse Laplace transform, and photoacoustic imaging with Radon transform. These detection methods all need to use reconstruction algorithms to reconstruct the original photoacoustic pattern. The algorithm itself requires scanning or data averaging, which takes a long time, which cannot monitor tissue changes in real time

Abstract

A real-time optico-acoustic imaging method based on acoustic lens and polarization detection is disclosed. The acoustic lens is used to generate the acoustic pressure distribution of biologic tissue duto optico-acoustic effect and couple it to an imaging plane for directly imaging on it. A polarization analyzing method is used to convert said acoustic pressure distribution to light intensity distribution, which is recorded by CCD to obtain a clear image of a tissue layer. Its apparatus is composed of transparent flexible rubber layer, optical fiber, acoustic lens, laser, 1 / 4 wave plate, polarization analyzer, CCD, computer, and cylindrical cavity made of aluminum.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to photoacoustic imaging technology, in particular to a real-time photoacoustic imaging method based on acoustic lens and polarization detection. [0002] The invention also relates to devices used in said method. Background technique [0003] Using optical imaging technology combined with modern advanced photoelectric detection technology to conduct non-invasive tomographic research on biological tissues has always been a research hotspot in optics, biomedicine and its interdisciplinary subjects, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT), Optical ultrafast time-resolved tomography and photon density wave imaging. Photoacoustic tomography (OACT) is an optical tomography technology with great potential and very attractive application prospects, because OACT uses the method of "light absorption-excitation photoacoustic signal-photoacoustic imaging". Imaging, it has many potential advantages. First, OACT uses the photoacoustic sig...
