All-optical scanhead for ultrasound and photoacoustic dual-modality imaging.
We propose a new scanhead design for combined ultrasound (US)/photoacoustic (PA) imaging that can be applied to dual-modality microscopy and biomedical imaging. Both imaging modalities employ the optical generation and detection of acoustic waves. The scanhead consists of an optical fiber with an axicon tip for excitation, and a microring for acoustic detection. No conventional piezoelectric de...
متن کاملQuantitative molecular imaging with a dual modality MR and fluorescence diffuse optical imaging system: phantom study
Introduction : Molecular imaging has become an essential tool in characterization and measurement of biological process at the molecular or cellular level. In vivo small animal studies have shown the feasibility of using MRI to investigate gene expression and stem cell migration with superparamagnetic iron nanoparticles [1]. However, even though MRI provides excellent anatomical information, th...
متن کاملTargeted vertical cross-sectional imaging with handheld near-infrared dual axes confocal fluorescence endomicroscope
We demonstrate vertical cross-sectional (XZ-plane) images of near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence with a handheld dual axes confocal endomicroscope that reveals specific binding of a Cy5.5-labeled peptide to pre-malignant colonic mucosa. This view is perpendicular to the tissue surface, and is similar to that used by pathologists. The scan head is 10 mm in outer diameter (OD), and integrates a one ...
متن کاملReflectance confocal endomicroscope with optical axial scanning for in vivo imaging of the oral mucosa.
This paper presents the design and evaluation of a reflectance confocal laser endomicroscope using a miniature objective lens within a rigid probe in conjunction with an electrically tunable lens for axial scanning. The miniature lens was characterized alone as well as in the endoscope across a 200 µm axial scan range using the tunable lens. The ability of the confocal endoscope to probe the hu...
متن کاملRefractive Dual Band Infrared Imager Optical Design
Infrared imagers are important for reorganization and monitoring. This paper discusses the design of an infrared imager. Optical design in medium wavelength infrared (MWIR) and long wavelength infrared (LWIR) bands is different and needs distinct detectors and materials. Reflective systems are not suitable due to their small field of view (FOV) and vignetting. Refractive dual band optical syste...
