[0104]Functional imaging verification of the model

[0105]Compared with the previously reported system, the most important advancement of this latest system design is the use of fiber optic illuminators (independent of the rotation of the detector probe, rotation around the breast) for each rotation step of the photoacoustic transducer. Whole breast irradiation. This article reports a pilot case study of a healthy volunteer and a patient with suspected small breast lesions. LOUISA visualizes the hypoxic veins and oxygenated arteries of healthy volunteers, thereby indicating the ability to visualize the hypoxic microvessels of cancerous tumors. The small lesions detected on the photoacoustic image of the patient are not visible on ultrasound, thereby potentially indicating the high system sensitivity of the photoacoustic subsystem to small but aggressive growth of cancerous lesions (with high density of angiogenic microvessels) Sex. Using a safe level of NIR optical fluence, the main ...

[0110]Clinical validation of LOUISA

[0111]The LOUISA system includes a 3D imaging module and a 2D imaging handheld probe. Although LOIS-3D (the predecessor of LOUISA) uses a half-time reconstruction algorithm in spherical coordinates(30), But must adopt full-time reconstruction for the hemispherical geometry of 3D image reconstruction to maintain the full view of breast imaging. Strict reconstruction solution(31). The patient’s image was acquired at a single wavelength of 757 nm, so blood oxygen saturation of blood vessels and tumors is impossible. 2 out of 3 projections (Figure 6A to Figure 6B Instead ofFigure 6C ) The nature of the visible smaller (3.5mm) tumors has not been explored conclusively.Figure 6A to Figure 6C It is the specific display of LOUISA sensitivity rather than tumor difference.

[0112]Various improvements in the imaging module design and enhancement of signal processing and image reconstruction algorithms result in high-contrast and high-resolution images of the b...

Abstract

Provided herein are imaging systems such as a system for quantitative tomography and a laser optoacoustic ultrasonic imaging system assembly (LOUISA) for imaging a tissue region, for example, a breastin a subject. Generally, the system components are a laser that emits instant pulses of laser light in a wavelength cycling mode, fiberoptic bundles or optical arc-shaped fiber bundles configured todeliver laser light, an imaging module with an imaging tank, an optoacoustic array(s) of ultrawide-band ultrasonic transducers and ultrasound array(s) of ultrasonic transducers and a coupling medium and an electronics subsystem. Also provided is a method for imaging quantitative functional parameters and / or molecular parameters and anatomical structures in a tissue volume of interest, such as a breast, in a subject utilizing the system for quantitative tomography.
