Music-of-light stethoscope: a demonstration of the photoacoustic effect. [PDF]
In this paper we present a system aimed at demonstrating the photoacoustic (PA) effect for educational purposes. PA imaging is a hybrid imaging modality that requires no contrast agent and has a great potential for spine and brain lesion characterisation, breast cancer and blood flow monitoring notably in the context of fetal surgery.

Photoacoustic effect applied on model membranes and living cells: direct observation with multiphoton excitation microscopy and long-term viability analysis. [PDF]
The photoacoustic effect is generated when a variable light interacts with a strongly light-absorbing material. In water, it may produce hot bubbles and shock waves that could affect the integrity of nearby cellular membranes, opening transient pores ...

Amplification of photoacoustic effect in bimodal polymer particles by self-quenching of indocyanine green. [PDF]
A new type of bimodal contrast agent was made that is based on the self-quenching of indocyanine green (ICG) encapsulated in a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer shell.

Photoacoustic effect for multiply scattered light
We consider the photoacoustic effect for multiply scattered light in a random medium. Within the accuracy of the diffusion approximation to the radiative transport equation, we present a general analysis of the sensitivity of a photoacoustic wave to the presence of one or more small absorbing objects.

Quantitative Study of the Nonlinearly Enhanced Photoacoustic/Photothermal Effect by Strong LSPR-Coupled Nanoassemblies [PDF]
The extensive exploration of the collective optical and thermal effects for localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)-coupled nanoassemblies has propelled much recent research and development in fields of photoacoustic (PA) imaging and photothermal (PT)

Longitudinal Photoacoustic Imaging of the Pharmacodynamic Effect of Vascular Targeted Therapy on Tumors [PDF]
Purpose: Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a novel noninvasive and nonionizing imaging technique that allows longitudinal imaging of tumor vasculature in vivo and monitoring of response to therapy, especially for vascular targeted chemotherapy agents.

Topological optimization method “MMA-BP” for photoacoustic resonator and implementations in ppt-level gas sensor using miniaturized vase-type photoacoustic cells [PDF]
A topological optimization method for photoacoustic resonators is proposed as the Method of Moving Asymptotes with Bernstein Polynomials (MMA-BP). This method is demonstrated in a ppt-level ultra-sensitive photoacoustic spectroscopy gas sensor using ...
