| Summary: | <p style="text-align:justify;"> Acousto-photonic imaging is a novel technique for non- invasive medical imaging that combines diffusive optical tomography with externally generated acoustic `virtual' sources to improve the resulting images. We lack, however, a detailed understanding of the nature of the interaction between the diffusive wave and the focused ultrasound. We present our recent theoretical and experimental work on determining the mechanism for the interaction between the acoustic and the optical fields. </p> |
