Abstract
Fabry-Perot scanners are typically read-out in a sequential manner. An alternative approach is to use a widefield illumination and measure the reflected light in parallel using a camera. This approach allows for a finer spatial sampling of the Fabry-Perot sensor and can speed up the image acquisition. In a first instance, the capability of the camera-based approach to finely spatially sample the sensor, with the means of improving image resolution, was demonstrated. In a second instance, the ability of the camera-based system to acquire 3D photoacoustic images in 200 ms when operating at a PRF of 1 kHz was demonstrated.
