List of PA Sub-Modes
PA-Mode has several sub-modes:
Single
l
Spectro
l
Oxy-Hemo
l
Multi-wavelength
l
Single
PA-Mode (Single) acquires images at one wavelength.
Spectro
PA-Mode (Spectro) acquires data across the entire wavelength range. This mode is typically used for
characterizing photoacoustic contrast agents.
Oxy-Hemo
PA-Mode (Oxy-Hemo) is used to create an overlay of oxygen saturation or total hemoglobin on an image.
These images are created by acquiring t wo wavelengths — 750 nm and 850 nm.
Multi-wavelength
PA-Mode (Multi-wavelength) acquires data with a combination of wavelengths. This allows the user to
multiplex and unmix captured data if desired.
