Clinical Evaluation of Opto-Acoustic Image Quality With the Gen1B Duplex Probe in Breast Applications

This study performs the first clinical evaluation of the Gen1B (OA-16-1S) duplex OA/US probe. This probe includes design changes to improve reliability and performance compared to the Gen1 (OA-16-1) duplex OA/US probe. The performance of the Gen1 duplex probe is functionally equivalent to the PIONEER duplex probe (OA-15-3), which was used in previous clinical studies for suspicious breast masses.
