Abstract

We develop an original optical imaging system based on the interaction of light with an ultrasonic field. A CCD camera followed by parallel data processing detects the modulation induced by the focused ultrasonic field in a great number of speckle grains. This acousto-optic imaging allows to reveal optical contrast through several centimeters thick biological tissues with a millimeter resolution.
