Radon–full-waveform inversion for suppressing scalp reverberation and skull-induced aberration in transcranial photoacoustic computed tomography
experiments demonstrate that RT-FWI outperforms both UBP and conventional FWI, improving the axial spatial resolution from 1.14 mm to 0.28 mm and the structural similarity index from 0.415 to 0.875. The proposed approach constitutes an advancement toward transcranial photoacoustic brain imaging.
