ABSTRACT
In this study, we introduce a multifocal acoustic radiation force source that combines an ultrasound transducer and a 3D-printed acoustic lens for application in reverberant optical coherence elastography (Rev-OCE). An array of plano-concave acoustic lenses, each with an 11.8 mm aperture diameter, were used to spatially distribute the acoustic energy generated by a 1â
MHz planar ultrasound transducer, producing multiple focal spots on a target plane. These focal spots generate reverberant shear wave fields detected by the optical coherence tomography (OCT) system. The effectiveness of the multifocal Rev-OCE system in probing mechanical properties with high resolution is demonstrated in layered gelatin phantoms.
