Laser-scanning photoacoustic microscopy with ultrasonic phased array transducer
In this paper, we report our latest progress on proving the concept that ultrasonic phased array can improve the detection sensitivity and field of view (FOV) in laser-scanning photoacoustic microscopy (LS-PAM). A LS-PAM system with a one-dimensional (1D) ultrasonic phased array was built for the experiments. The 1D phased array transducer consists of 64 active elements with an overall active d...
متن کاملPhotoacoustic and ultrasonic coimage with a linear transducer array.
A technique is developed to simultaneously acquire ultrasound and photoacoustic (PA) images based on a linear transducer array. The system uses conventional ultrasound for rapid identification of potential targets. After a target is identified, the ultrasound echo and PA signals can be simultaneously obtained with optimized excitation and a signal collection sequence. The corresponding ultrasou...
متن کاملLaser scanning laser diode photoacoustic microscopy system
The development of low-cost and fast photoacoustic microscopy systems enhances the clinical applicability of photoacoustic imaging systems. To this end, we present a laser scanning laser diode-based photoacoustic microscopy system. In this system, a 905 nm, 325 W maximum output peak power pulsed laser diode with 50 ns pulsewidth is utilized as the light source. A combination of aspheric and cyl...
متن کاملA MEMS Phased Array Transducer for Ultrasonic Flaw Detection
Metal structures can fail because of fatigue crack propagation or because of section loss from corrosion. Regular inspection is required to detect such failures. We report here progress toward the development of MEMS-based transducers for ultrasonic flaw detection, to be permanently mounted at critical locations on structures. In a complete system, a single piezoelectric element will be used to...
متن کاملIn vivo photoacoustic microscopy with 7.6-µm axial resolution using a commercial 125-MHz ultrasonic transducer.
Photoacoustic microscopy has achieved submicron lateral resolution, but its axial resolution is much lower. Here an axial resolution of 7.6 μm, the highest axial resolution validated by experimental data, has been achieved by using a commercial 125 MHz ultrasonic transducer for signal detection followed by the Wiener deconvolution for signal processing. Limited by the working distance, the high...
