Ultrasound-guided photoacoustic (US-PA) tomography of the breast: Biochemical differentiation using intrinsic tissue markers—lipids, collagen and hemoglobin with histopathologic correlation

Ultrasound-guided photoacoustic (US-PA) tomography of the breast: Biochemical differentiation using intrinsic tissue markers—lipids, collagen and hemoglobin with histopathologic correlation

Abstract In this pilot study, we investigated the utility of handheld ultrasound-guided photoacoustic (US-PA) imaging probe for analyzing ex-vivo breast specimens obtained from female patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery (BCS). We aimed to assess the potential of US-PA in detecting bioch...
