Herein we report the first in-human transcranial imaging of brain function using photoacoustic computed tomography. Functional responses to benchmark motor tasks were imaged on both the skull-less and the skull-intact hemispheres of a hemicraniectomy patient. The observed brain responses in these preliminary results demonstrate the potential of photoacoustic computed tomography for achieving transcranial functional imaging.
