Abstract
In accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure, a device for non-invasive medical imaging is provided. In some embodiments, the device comprises a photonic integrated circuit scale dual frequency comb (DFC), a hand-held wand, and at least one processing element. The wand comprises at least one emission point for emitting light from the DFC at a plurality of different wavelengths and at least three sensors. The wand directs the emitted light at one or more bodily structures. The sensors are adapted to detect acoustic waves from thermo-elastic changes in one or more elements within the bodily structures. The processing element is for generating an optical absorption spectrum from the detected acoustic waves, identifying one or more elements within the bodily structures based on the optical absorption spectrum, and generating a three-dimensional image of the elements based on the optical absorption spectrum from the detected acoustic waves.
