Abstract
Frequency-domain photothermoacoustic (FD-PTA) imaging of biological tissues is presented and compared with the conventional time-domain methodology. We demonstrate that tissue imaging can be performed with high axial resolution without the necessity to employ short-pulse and high peak-power laser systems to generate acoustic transients. The presented analysis shows that depth information in the FD-PTA method can be recovered by using linear frequency-modulated (chirped) optical excitation and frequency-domain signal processing algorithms. The signal-to-noise ratio can be increased significantly using correlation processing, which can compensate for the small amplitude of acoustic waves typical to the periodic excitation mode. Additionally, narrow-band signal demodulation enables depth-specific and confocal tissue imaging using the optically induced photothermoacoustic effect. Application of the FD-PTA is demonstrated in experiments with turbid phantoms and ex vivo tissue specimens.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
