An apparatus or a system may include an ultrasonic sensor array, a radio frequency (RF) source system and a control system. Some implementations may include a light source system and/or an ultrasonic transmitter system. The control system may be capable of controlling the RF source system to emit RF radiation and of receiving signals from the ultrasonic sensor array corresponding to acoustic waves emitted from portions of a target object in response to being illuminated with the RF radiation. The control system may be capable of acquiring ultrasonic image data from the acoustic wave emissions received from the target object.本發明係關於一種設備或一種系統，其可包括一超音波感應器陣列、一射頻(RF)源系統及一控制系統。一些實施可包括一光源系統及/或一超音波傳輸器系統。該控制系統可能夠控制該RF源系統發射RF輻射，且能夠自該超音波感應器陣列接收對應於回應於由該RF輻射照明而自一目標對象之部分發射之聲波的信號。該控制系統可能夠自接收自該目標對象之該等聲波發射獲取超音波影像資料。
