Abstract
In this work, we demonstrate how the wide acoustic bandwidths generated by all-optical ultrasound imaging probes can be leveraged to dynamically trade-off image resolution with penetration depth. This dynamic trade-off was achieved through temporal modulation of the excitation light using bandwidth-limited linear chirps. The penetration depth of the all-optical ultrasound imaging probe used here could be arbitrarily set between 2 and 15 mm, to achieve inversely proportional spatial resolutions ranging from 128 - 500 μm (lateral)and 189 - 295 μn (axial). This added versatility in image parameters will enable seamless multi-scale ultrasound imaging that can strongly benefit interventional imaging.
