Abstract

Optical and acoustic imaging techniques enable noninvasive visualization of structural and functional tissue properties. Data-driven approaches for quantification of these properties are promising, but they rely on highly accurate simulations due to the lack of ground truth knowledge. We recently introduced the open-source simulation and image processing for photonics and acoustics (SIMPA) Python toolkit that has quickly been adopted by the community in the context of the IPASC consortium for standardized reconstruction. We present new developments in the toolkit including e.g. improved tissue and device modeling and provide an outlook on future directions aiming at improving the realism of simulations.
