Abstract

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in women aged from 20 to 40. While laparoscopy and MRI are commonly used methods for detecting endometriosis, its diagnosis remains a challenge due to variations in location of endometrial tissue and symptoms which can vary between individuals. We are designing a low-cost photoacoustic imaging system to detect endometriosis in vivo without the insertion of a transvaginal probe or fluorescence. In our talk, we will present the design of our system, compare and analyze our preliminary results, and discuss the feasibility of our approach in non-invasive in vivo detection of endometriosis.
