Abstract
The present invention provides a system and principles of laser photo-acoustic imaging and tomography. The basis for laser photo-acoustic tomography is the time resolved detection of laser induced transient stress waves, selectively generated in absorbing tissues of diagnostic interest. Such a technique allows to visualize absorbed light distribution in turbid biological tissues irradiated by short laser pulses. Laser photo-acoustic tomography can be used for detection of tissue pathological changes that result in increased concentration of various tissue chromophore such as hemoglobin or development of enhanced micro-circulation in diseased tissue. The invented technology combines the advantages of pulsed laser excitation with time resolved detection of acoustic transients. The invented technology can be used for determination of optical heterogeneities in biological tissues. These heterogeneities include blood vessels, tissue layers, abnormal tissues and damaged tissues with further reconstruction of 3D tomographic images of human organs or portions thereof.
