The field of acousto-optical tomography （AOT） for medical applications began in the 1990s and has since developed multiple techniques for the detection of ultrasound-modulated light. Light becomes frequency shifted as it travels through an ultrasound beam. This ＂tagged＂ light can be detected and use...
