Description
Summary:The aim of this paper is to develop new coherent interferometry (CINT) algorithms to correct the effect of an unknown cluttered sound speed (random fluctuations around a known constant) on photoacoustic images. By back-propagating the correlations between the preprocessed pressure measurements, we show that we are able to provide statistically stable photoacoustic images. The preprocessing is exactly in the same way as when we use the circular or the line Radon inversion to obtain photoacoustic images. Moreover, we provide a detailed stability and resolution analysis of the new CINT--Radon algorithms. We also present numerical results to illustrate their performance and to compare them with Kirchhoff--Radon migration functions.
