The acousto-optic effect is a phenomenon in which the presence of an acoustic wave changes the light transmission properties of an optical medium. Acousto-optic tomography (AOT) is a hybrid imaging method which takes advantage of this effect. The general idea is to modulate the optical properties of an optical medium by varying an acoustic wave,...
