Ultrasound-modulated optical tomography (UOT) is a technique that images optical contrast deep inside scattering media. Heterodyne holography is a promising tool that is able to detect UOT-tagged photons with high efficiency. In this work, we describe theoretically the detection of the tagged photon in heterodyne holography-based UOT, show how to filter the untagged photon, and discuss the effect of shot noise. The discussion also considers speckle decorrelation. We show that optimal detection…

Dependences of ultrasonic modulation of coherent light on optical frequency shift and phase modulation

In ultrasound-modulated optical tomography, the incident light is frequency-shifted and phase-modulated simultaneously by ultrasound. Both the optical frequency shift and phase modulation can cause…
