In photoacoustic imaging, laser power variation is one of the major factors in the degradation of the quality of reproduced images. A simple, but efficient method of compensating for the variations in laser pulse energy is proposed here where the characteristics of the adopted optical sensor and acoustic sensor were estimated in order to minimize the average local variation in optically homogeneous regions. Phantom experiments were carried out to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
