This paper provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in acousto-optic (AO)-based techniques in the field of medical applications, focusing on improvement in resolution, detection speed, and imaging depth. It covers theoretical modeling strategies, numerical simulation methods, and recent medical applications. The paper compares different techniques in terms of complexity, achieved depth in tissue, and resolution, as well as different numerical simulation methods. The challenges faced by AO techniques, particularly in realistic in vivo imaging, are also discussed, along with prospects of AO-based medical diagnosis methods.
Development of acousto-optic (AO) techniques has made progress in recent years across a range of medical application fields, especially in improving resolution, detection speed, and imaging depth. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in AO-based techniques that have been presented after the previously published review in 2017. The survey covers a description of theoretical modeling strategies and numerical simulation methods as well as recent applications in medical fields. It also provides a comparison between different techniques in terms of complexity, achieved depth in tissue, and resolution. In addition, a comparison between different numerical simulation methods will be outlined. Additionally, a number of challenges faced by AO techniques are considered, particularly in the context of realistic in vivo imaging. Finally, the paper discusses prospects of AO-based medical diagnosis methods.
