Photoacoustic imaging is a non-invasive imaging technique that combines the high spatial resolution of optical imaging with the deep tissue penetration of ultrasound imaging. It works by using laser light to generate acoustic waves in tissue, which can then be detected and used to create high-resolution images of structures within the body. This technique has applications in a variety of fields, including cancer detection, brain imaging, and cardiovascular imaging.
