Common setups for photoacoustic tomography. Left: 3D imaging using a point detector scanning over a surface enclosing the object. Middle: 2D imaging using a line detector scanning along a curve around the object. Right: Quasi 2D imaging with a focused point detector scanning along a curve in a plane, surrounding the object.
