Abstract

A novel method of ultrasound-modulated optical tomography (UOT) detection based on the laser feedback technology is proposed in this Letter. The system has advantages such as a simple structure, high sensitivity, and reflective configuration. Effective penetration depths of up to 9cm and 5cm in phantom and biological tissues, respectively, have been demonstrated experimentally. The detection capability is comparable with the state of the art in the transmission mode but with a much lower photon consumption. Although a lot remains to be improved, the proposed method is promising for further development toward practical applications.
