Peripheral Neutrophil Activation and Extracellular Trap Formation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Markers of neutrophil activation are increased in plasma during ALS, and markers of NET formation associate with ALS survival. ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neutrophil levels in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) inversely correlate with survival, suggesting a role for neutrophils in disease progression.

Imaging of transient phenomena with low coherence lasers comprising arrays of independent microbeams: A laser version of Harold Edgerton’s stroboscope

APL Photonics, 2022
A longstanding barrier to laser imaging with high spatial and temporal resolution is speckle, the granular interference pattern arising from the coherent interaction of laser radiation with the topography of an illuminated surface.

The dependence of speckle contrast on velocity: a numerical study

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2022
We study how the speckle contrast depends on scatterer velocity, with the goal of further developing laser speckle imaging as a quantitative measurement technique. To that end, we perform interferometric computer simulations on a dilute plug flow.

Creating Ti–Fe α/β Alloys by Diffusion‐Driven Solid‐State Processing

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study proposes making alloys containing fast diffusing elements that are difficult to produce by ingot metallurgy, by diffusion‐driven solid‐state HIP processing of elemental powders and low‐temperature homogenisation. Here, novel Fe‐Ti α–β alloys are formed having fine α–β lamellae, a small β prior grain size without significant intermetallics ...

Exploration of movement artefacts in handheld laser speckle contrast perfusion imaging [PDF]

, 2020
Functional performance of handheld laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) is compromised by movement artefacts. Here we quantify the movements of a handheld LSCI system employing electromagnetic (EM) tracking and measure the applied translational, tilt ...

Laser speckle reduction based on angular diversity induced by Piezoelectric Benders [PDF]

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2013
Speckle reduction techniques have been investigated in display systems with coherent light sources. We propose a simple but efficient method to reduce speckle via two fast vibrating piezoelectric benders.

Speckle-free laser imaging using random laser illumination [PDF]

Nature Photonics, 2012
Exploiting the low spatial coherence of specifically designed random lasers, researchers demonstrate speckle-free full-field imaging in the regime of intense optical scattering. Their results show that the quality of images generated from random-laser illumination is superior to those generated from spatially coherent illumination.

Frequency-division-multiplexing technique for imaging metrology [PDF]

, 2014
An algorithm to multiplex multiple image captures simultaneously onto a single image sensor at full frame resolution was developed for imaging metrology. Parseval’s theorem was used to obtain the image intensity from image time-series of around typically
