PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enhance convenience of a user and suppress a temperature of a part that makes contact with an analyte.SOLUTION: A photoacoustic probe 10 comprises: a light source part 13 that makes contact with an analyte Bd; an acoustic wave detection part 14 that detects an acoustic wave generated in the analyte Bd; and a fluid flow path 40 in which an acoustic matching fluid flows. The fluid flow path 40 includes a heat exchanging part 43 that is arranged in the light source part 13 and transmits heat of a light emitter 130 to the acoustic matching fluid, and a fluid supply part 50 that applies the acoustic matching fluid on a surface of the analyte Bd.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 |
