Simple method to determine the resolution and sensitivity of systems for optoacoustic tomography

In this paper we present a method to determine the spatial resolution and sensitivity of systems for optoacoustic tomography (OAT). The method consists of obtaining the image of a sample based on a transparent film embedded in agarose. The film has a certain pattern made with a laser printer that al...

The method consists of obtaining the image of a sample based on a transparent film embedded in agarose. The film has a certain pattern made with a laser printer that allows to obtain the system spatial resolution. Moreover, since the damage threshold of the ink pattern is similar to that of living tissue, it is also possible to determine if the system is sensitive enough to be applied on biological samples. The method is straightforward, fast and repeatable, and was tested in a OAT system for obtaining two-dimensional images developed in our laboratory. En este trabajo se presenta un método para determinar la resolución espacial y la sensibilidad de sistemas para tomografía optoacústica (TOA). Éste consiste en la obtención de la imagen de una muestra basada en una lámina transparente embebida en agarosa. La lámina posee un determinado patrón realizado con una impresora láser que permite determinar la resolución espacial del sistema. Por otro lado, como su umbral de daño es similar a del tejido vivo, también es posible establecer si el sistema posee la suficiente sensibilidad para ser usado en muestras biológicas. El método es directo, rápido y repetible, y fue probado en un sistema TOA para obtención de imágenes bidimensionales desarrollado en nuestro laboratorio. application/pdf text/html https://elektron.fi.uba.ar/elektron/article/view/47 10.37537/rev.elektron.2.2.47.2018 eng FIUBA https://elektron.fi.uba.ar/elektron/article/view/47/44 https://elektron.fi.uba.ar/elektron/article/view/47/137 Derechos de autor 2018 Martin Gonzalez, Eduardo Omar Acosta, Guillermo Santiago Elektron Journal; Vol. 2 No. 2 (2018); 63-66 Revista Elektron; Vol. 2 Núm. 2 (2018); 63-66 Revista Elektron; v. 2 n. 2 (2018); 63-66 2525-0159 2525-0159 optoacoustic tomography spatial resolution sensitivity tomografía optoacústica resolución espacial sensibilidad Simple method to determine the resolution and sensitivity of systems for optoacoustic tomography Método sencillo para determinar la resolución y sensibilidad de sistemas para tomografía optoacústica info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=elektron&d=47_oai
