  • Abstract
    Our objective is to provide researchers with an inexpensive and fast photoacoustic imaging (PAI) device for exvivo studies. We implement this using an acoustic lens based focusing idea together with photoacoustic technology, resulting in a prototype imaging system. A complete photoacoustic imaging system simulation modeling is presented. The system resolution is evaluated through simulation and experiment. Imaging capability with the prototype system is demonstrated.
