Research on x-ray induced acoustic computerized tomography in vascular imaging

This research explores the use of x-ray induced acoustic computed tomography (XACT) in vascular imaging to assess parameters like oxygen content, blood flow, and velocity. XACT’s high-resolution imaging capabilities could revolutionize diagnostics and monitoring of vascular conditions by enabling non-invasive, real-time evaluations. The study will investigate the feasibility of obtaining quantitative measurements of blood oxygenation, along with flow rates and velocities, using XACT, potentially enhancing our understanding of vascular physiology and improving clinical outcomes.
