Popis: Photoacoustic microscopy acquires volumetric RF data to obtain high resolution, high contrast, images of the microvasculature but is associated with slow acquisition of data due to mechanical raster scanning across the image plane. Recent work has shown that the acquisition speed can be increased using compressive sampling methods and subsequent reconstruction. These methods use bases (dictionaries) learned from prior fully sampled acquisitions, or classical bases such as the Fourier or wavelet bases. In this study, we present the simultaneous learning of bases, and reconstruction using only subsampled data. The algorithm was validated at two different subsampling levels 50% and 75% downsampling, and compared to the ground truth reconstruction with fully sampled data by estimating the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR). No significant difference in performance was observed between the fully sampled (20.0±3.0 dB), 50% (19.9±2.1 dB) and 75% (19.1±2.6 dB) subsampled data.
