Title: Recent Developments in Quantitative Photoacoustic Imaging

Abstract: Quantitative photoacoustic imaging (QPAT) is a hybrid imaging technique that couples, through photoacoustic effect, the high-resolution ultrasound imaging with the high-contrast optical imaging techniques to achieve high resolution and high contrast in imaging applications. Image reconstruction problems in quantitative photoacoustic imaging can be formulated as inverse problems to certain partial differential equations. I will attempt to give an overview of some recent developments in the mathematical and computational aspects of QPAT.
