    摘要: An object information acquiring apparatus comprises a light irradiation unit configured to irradiate an object with light; a sound generating member arranged between the object and the light irradiation unit and configured to generate a substantially planar ultrasonic wave based on the irradiated light; an acoustic wave probe configured to acquire an acoustic wave generated inside the object due to the light and convert the acoustic wave into a first electric signal; and an information generating unit configured to generate information concerning optical characteristics of an interior of the object, based on the first electric signal, wherein the sound generating member allows a part of the light irradiated from the light irradiation unit to pass through the sound generating member to the object.

    摘要: Apparatus and method for detecting ultrasound images from a body under examination. The apparatus comprises a unit emitting ultrasound pulses and a unit receiving ultrasound pulses. The emitting unit and the receiving unit face each other and are spaced apart by a predetermined distance. These units are arranged at opposite sides of a cavity housing the body under examination. The ultrasound pulses emitted from the emitting unit are received by the receiving unit after passing through the body under examination and are transformed into transmission signals. Included is a control unit for the emitting unit, a unit processing the received signals, image generating device and image displaying device. The processing unit comprises a unit comparing the values of a propagation speed of ultrasound pulses and/or of the attenuation of ultrasound pulses with predetermined threshold values.
