3D Photoacoustic Scanner

Radiation-free, non-invasive photoacoustic imaging (PAI) system visualizes the structure and function of the microvascular network

The Luxonus Photoacoustic 3D imaging scanner is unique in that it uses laser light as the transmitter and ultrasound as the receiver. The resulting image resolution of scanned blood vessels is extremely high and better than with typical current imaging methods such as MRI, CT or Ultrasound. The ability to display and differentiate between arteries, veins and lymphatic vessels and being non-invasive and without radiation or the need for any harmful contrast agents is highly attractive. Depending on the area of interest, the scans can be performed in real-time or within just a few minutes and are not operator dependent.

CONCEPT


 

Photoacoustic 3D Imaging(PAI)

PAI is a technology that uses a special sensor to receive ultrasound waves generated when pulsed light is irradiated to a living body, and computer analysis is used to create images from the received data.

Compared to existing imaging technologies such as ultrasound, X-ray computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), new diagnostic imaging equipment using PAI enables ultra-high resolution 3D imaging of blood vessels with no exposure and no invasiveness (no contrast agent used).

In addition, hemoglobin oxygen saturation and lymphatic vessels can be visualized, which is expected to be utilized for preoperative planning and verification of medication effects.
