Cancer is a fatal disease with a complex pathophysiology. Lack of specificity and
cytotoxicity, as well as the multidrug resistance of traditional cancer chemotherapy, are the …

We review the history of photoacoustics from the discovery in 1880 that modulated light
produces acoustic waves to the current time, when the pulsed variant of the discovery is fast …

Obtaining absolute chromophore concentrations from photoacoustic images obtained at
multiple wavelengths is a nontrivial aspect of photoacoustic imaging but is essential for …

Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is probably the fastest-growing area of biomedical imaging
technology, owing to its capacity for high-resolution sensing of rich optical contrast in vivo at …
