Abstract

We use optical interferometry to capture coherent surface acoustic waves for elastographic imaging. An inverse method is employed to convert multi-frequency data into an elastic depth profile. Using this method, we image elastic properties over a 55 mm range with <5 mm resolution. For relevance to breast cancer detection, we employ a tissue phantom with a tumor-like inclusion. Holographic elastography is also shown to be well-behaved in ex vivo tissue, revealing the subsurface position of a bone. Because digital holography can assess waves over a wide surface area, this constitutes a flexible new platform for large volume and non-invasive elastography.

SAW phase reconstructions of the surface over the inclusion are shown in (b) for excitation at 96Hz (Media 3) (c) for 168Hz (Media 4), and (d) for 228Hz (Media 5). The dashed circles in (b-d) correspond to the approximate lateral position of the inclusion. SAWs are perturbed by the inclusion only at low frequencies, when the SAW penetration depth is great enough to reach the inclusion. (e) B-mode ultrasound of the same phantom in a control region without the inclusion. SAW phase reconstructions of the surface in this region are shown in (f) for 96Hz (Media 6), (g) for 168Hz (Media 7), and (h) for 228Hz (Media 8).
