Abstract :
The ultrasonic velocity change induced by light was measured quickly by the remodeled commercial-type ultrasonic equipment with the multi-array transducer in order to investigate a practical optical tomography for medical diagnosis. The 3D view of the optical absorption region in the tissue mimic phantom was obtained by ultrasonic velocity change imaging
