Abstract
Provided herein are quantitative optoacoustic tomography systems and methods for dynamic of functional parameters in a subject, for example, to assess conditions of the peripheral vasculature. The system generally has a pulsed laser, a fiberoptic optic bundle light delivery system, and imaging module, an array of ultrawide-band ultrasonic transducers, a circulation system, and electronics/computer system for system control and three-dimensional and two-dimensional optoacoustic image visualization. Also provided is a method for quantitative optoacoustic tomography of an appendage where an appendage of a subject is imaged under conditions of normal, maximum and minimum tolerable temperatures and displaying differential anatomical images of peripheral vasculature in the appendage and functional diagnostic parameters as a function of time and temperature. From this data medical conditions of the appendage may be diagnosed.
