Abstract :
This paper focuses on multi-spectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT), a new powerful addition to the molecular imaging arsenal that brings the best out of the optical imaging potential. Multispectral excitation combines ability to resolve diverse contrast mechanisms provided by the optical wavelengths with high resolution deep tissue penetration of optoacoustics.
