Due to its noninvasiveness, high resolution, and sensitivity, photoacoustic imaging has developed rapidly in the field of biomedicine. However, research on dermatosis detection by is still lacking. In this paper, skin modeled as a multilayer planar medium based non-homogeneous, complex layered structure tissue. Then, analytical expression for signal tissue was derived under assumption that ther...
