Remote photoacoustic sensing using speckle-analysis for b...
Lengenfelder, Benjamin
In this thesis the simple, contact-free speckle-analysis is investigated for its application in photoacoustic detection. First, a simulation model is created which theoretically confirms the detectability of photoacoustic surface deformations by speckle-analysis. Subsequently, the feasibility of contact-free detection is demonstrated by experiments on phantoms and ex-vivo tissue using a high-speed camera system. For these measurements multiple...
