Abstract
An apparatus may include a platen, a light source system, an ultrasonic receiver system and a control system, the light source system configured for providing first light of a first wavelength and second light of a second wavelength to a target object along a first axis. The control system may be configured to: cause the light source system to provide the first light to the target object at a first time and to provide the second light to the target object at a second time; receive first ultrasonic receiver signals and second ultrasonic receiver signals from the ultrasonic receiver system corresponding to photoacoustic responses of the target object to the first light and the second light, respectively; and estimate one or more blood vessel features based on at least one of the first ultrasonic receiver signals or the second ultrasonic receiver signals.
