Fast raster-scan optoacoustic mesoscopy enables assessment of human melanoma microvasculature in vivo

Raster-Scanning-Optoacoustic Mesoscopy can be used to image the vasculature in skin cancer lesions but is limited by a long exposure time. Here; the authors increase the speed of the imaging using co-axial illumination and a high-sensitivity ultrasound detector path.
