PS's halftone tool (under filter gallery / sketch / halftone ) set to "line" can sorta-kinda do a similar effect, but the best (ok, easiest) way is one of the commercial plugins that have many more features & adjustments, e.g.,:


#1 Alpha Plugin's "Engraver":

#2 - Van der Lee's "Halftone":

In both, note that many different spirals, circles, phase shifts, etc. are available as options.


The effect can also be done using PS's basic / native tools, and, as I recall, there are a few tutorials floating around that illustrate this approach.  If you are searching on Google, also be sure to include terms like:


"guilloché", "half-tone", "line screen"
