Extended Data Fig. 4: Performance of vMSOT with different illumination schemes.
From: Multiscale optical and optoacoustic imaging of amyloid-β deposits in mice

a, Top-view maximum intensity projection (MIP) of the volumetric vMSOT brain image recorded from a 5-months old nude mouse when the illumination was provided from a single direction through the central aperture of the array. b, The corresponding image when the brain is illuminated from four different directions using the multi-arm fiber bundle. c,d, Cross-sections of the 3D image in b for the indicated positions. The horizontal (xy) section corresponds to a depth of 3 mm from the scalp surface. The illumination wavelength was 800 nm.
