  • In biological Photoacoustic Tomography (PAT), the images of initial pressure, optical deposition and optical properties are usually reconstructed from acoustic measurements based on an ideal assumption of uniform and stable illumination for simplicity. However, in practical applications, optical attenuation and inhomogeneous distribution of light fluence in tissues may occur after the imaging target is illuminated by short laser pulses, which results in inaccurate image reconstruction and reduced image quality. This paper summarizes current methods for reducing errors caused by inhomogeneous and unstable illumination in PAT under non-ideal conditions and discusses the advantages and limits of these methods.
