چکیده
The cellular localisation and binding specificity of two NMDAR-targeted near-IR imaging probes has been examined by microscopy, followed by exemplification of MSOT to monitor simulated glutamate bursts in cellulo and a preliminary study in mice observing the signal in the brain.

Eigenspectra optoacoustic tomography achieves quantitative blood oxygenation imaging deep in tissues
Light propagating in tissue attains a spectrum that varies with location due to wavelength-dependent fluence attenuation, an effect that causes spectral corruption. Spectral corruption has limited the quantification accuracy of optical and optoacoustic spectroscopic methods, and impeded the goal of imaging blood oxygen saturation (sO2) deep in tissues; a critical goal for the assessment of oxyg...
متن کاملMelanin-Based Contrast Agents for Biomedical Optoacoustic Imaging and Theranostic Applications
Optoacoustic imaging emerged in early 1990s as a new biomedical imaging technology that generates images by illuminating tissues with short laser pulses and detecting resulting ultrasound waves. This technique takes advantage of the spectroscopic approach to molecular imaging, and delivers high-resolution images in the depth of tissue. Resolution of the optoacoustic imaging is scalable, so that...
متن کاملLaser Optoacoustic Imaging for Breast Cancer Diagnostics: Limit of Detection and Comparison with X-ray and Ultrasound Imaging
Laser optoacoustic imaging is a promising diagnostic technique for early breast cancer detection. Capability of laser optoacoustic imaging for visualization of small spherical tumor phantoms located within the bulk collagen gels was studied. The experiments were performed with breast phantoms made of optically turbid collagen gel. Optical properties of the phantom resembled the optical properti...
متن کاملGold nanorods as molecular contrast agents in photoacoustic imaging: the promises and the caveats.
Rod-shaped gold nanoparticles exhibit intense and narrow absorption peaks for light in the far-red and near-infrared wavelength regions, owing to the excitation of longitudinal plasmons. Light absorption is followed predominantly by non radiative de-excitation, and the released heat and subsequent temperature rise cause strong photoacoustic (optoacoustic) signals to be produced. This feature co...
متن کاملPerformance of a Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography (MSOT) System equipped with 2D vs. 3D Handheld Probes for Potential Clinical Translation
A handheld approach to optoacoustic imaging is essential for the clinical translation. The first 2- and 3-dimensional handheld multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT) probes featuring real-time unmixing have recently been developed. Imaging performance of both probes was determined in vitro and in a brain melanoma metastasis mouse model in vivo. T1-weighted MR images were acquired for anat...
