| contents | Photoacoustic imaging has emerged as a powerful, non-invasive modality for various biomedical applications. Conventional photoacoustic systems require contact-based ultrasound detection and expensive and bulky high-power lasers for the excitation. The use of contact-based detectors involves the risk of contamination, which is undesirable for most biomedical applications. While other non-contact detection methods can be bulky, in this paper, we demonstrate compact and contactless detection of photoacoustic signals on silicone samples embedded with ink-filled channels, mimicking tissue with blood-carrying veins. A silicon photonics-based Laser Doppler Vibrometer (LDV) detects the acoustic waves excited by a compact pulsed laser diode. By scanning the LDV beam over the surface of the sample, 2D photoacoustic images were reconstructed of the sample. Photoacoustic signals with absorption coefficients within the physiological range were detected by this setup. |
