Eigenspectra optoacoustic tomography achieves quantitative blood oxygenation imaging deep in tissues

Spectral corruption impedes imaging of blood oxygen saturation. Here Tzoumas et al.describe light fluence in the spectral domain and introduce eigenspectra Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography to account for wavelength-dependent light attenuation and estimate blood oxygen saturation within deep tis...
