Abstract

It is of vital importance to understanding the relation between image quality and excitation light pulse characteristics in LED-based photoacoustic imaging system. We have tried to change pulse waveform of LED light source to detect several kinds of photoacoustic signals related to the image quality. As a result, in order to understand the photoacoustic signal, it is necessary to consider the characteristics of the optical pulse waveform and the ultrasonic probe well.
