Acoustical characterisation of the freehand OpUS probe (a) Composite field scan comprising the coherent summation of field scans for each OpUS source in the array after back-propagation to the transducer surface, pressure presented in MPa. (b) Mean and 95 % confidence interval of the 61 time traces measured on-axis at full laser power, measured at 1.5 mm from the generator surface. (c) Mean and 95 % confidence interval of the acoustic power spectra for all 61 OpUS sources in the freehand probe.
