摘要:
Provided is a miniaturized photo-acoustic probe for a clinical image capable of effectively measuring a photo-acoustic signal by making an ultrasonic axis and an optical axis parallel. The photo-acoustic probe for a clinical image includes a laser generator configured to generate a laser beam, an ultrasound transducer disposed to be parallel to the laser generator and configured to analyze ultrasound output from an object, first and second reflectors configured to receive ultrasound generated in an axis identical to that of the laser beam generated by the laser generator, and a medium material configured to allow the laser to be transmitted from the first reflector to the object and increase ultrasound reflectivity of the first and the second reflector.
