Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to measurement technology, in particular to a method for measuring photoacoustic signals of biological tissues with a probe ultrasonic beam.
[0002] The invention also relates to a device for use in a method of measuring photoacoustic signals of biological tissue with a probe ultrasound beam. Background technique
[0003] In recent years, the research and application of the photoacoustic effect has received more and more attention. When a certain object is irradiated with light, its internal temperature will change due to its absorption of light, which will cause changes in the mechanical parameters of its local area; when a pulsed light source or modulated light source is used, the fluctuation of the local temperature inside the object will cause Its volume expands and contracts, so it can radiate sound waves outward. This phenomenon is called photoacoustic field effect (referred to as photoacoustic e...
