A superresolution imaging approach that localizes very small targets
such as red blood cells or droplets of injected photoacoustic dye
has significantly improved spatial resolution in various biological and medical imaging modalities. However
this superior spatial resolution is achieved by sacrificing temporal resolution because many raw image frames
each containing the localization target
must be superimposed to form a sufficiently sampled high-density superresolution image. Here
we demonstrate a computational strategy based on deep neural networks (DNNs) to reconstruct high-density superresolution images from far fewer raw image frames. The localization strategy can be applied for both 3D label-free localization optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy (OR-PAM) and 2D labeled localization photoacoustic computed tomography (PACT). For the former
the required number of raw volumetric frames is reduced from tens to fewer than ten. For the latter
the required number of raw 2D frames is reduced by 12 fold. Therefore
our proposed method has simultaneously improved temporal (via the DNN) and spatial (via the localization method) resolutions in both label-free microscopy and labeled tomography. Deep-learning powered localization PA imaging can potentially provide a practical tool in preclinical and clinical studies requiring fast temporal and fine spatial resolutions.
