Thermoacoustic imaging
Thermoacoustic computed tomography is
an hybrid imaging technique that converts incident electromagnetic energy
into sound waves that can be used to reconstruct the absorption pattern
of the incident energy source in 3D with excellent spatial resolution
as good as 10 microns .
Imasonic detector arrays have been engineered
specifically to optimise thermoacoustic signal detection and have been
found to offer a fourfold improvement in detection sensitivity compared
with conventional piezoelectric transducers:
-
Specific EM shielding to optimise sensitivity in receive mode
- Specific matrix array pattern
- Low cross coupling
