Abstract
Despite the growing use of transcranial focused ultrasound (TUS) methods in pre-clinical research, noninvasive real-time monitoring of the TUS procedures remains an open challenge. Here we devised a wide-angle spherical array bidirectional interface for high-resolution parallelized optoacoustic imaging and transcranial ultrasound delivery (POTUS). The system is capable of generating and steering tightly focused ultrasound spots across a field of view covering the entire mouse brain, while the same array is used to capture 3D optoacoustic data in real time. We showcase the system’s versatile beam-forming capacities as well as volumetric optoacoustic imaging capabilities.
