光声成像技术及其在乳腺肿瘤诊断中的应用

Photoacoustic Imaging Technology and Its Clinical Application to Breast Tumors

光声成像作为一种新兴的生物医学成像技术,以光声效应为成像基础,兼备光学高对比度、超声高穿透度的优点,同时具有光谱信息获取能力,可进行功能成像,具有良好的临床应用前景。乳腺肿瘤是目前光声成像技术临床应用最广泛的领域,本文综述光声成像技术特点及其在乳腺肿瘤的临床应用现状,并对未来应用前景进行展望。

Photoacoustic imaging(PAI)based on the photoacoustic effect is a new and promising bio-medical imaging technology.It has the advantages of high optical contrast and deep ultrasonic penetration.Fur-thermore,it has the ability to acquire functional information based on optical imaging with multi-wavelength.The application of PAI in breast tumors has been widely explored.In this article,we reviewed the PAI systems and their clinical application to breast tumors over the past few years and looked into the prospect of the applica-tion of PAI in the future.
