Biomedical photoacoustic imaging [PDF]

open access: yesInterface Focus, 2011
Photoacoustic (PA) imaging, also called optoacoustic imaging, is a new biomedical imaging modality based on the use of laser-generated ultrasound that has emerged over the last decade. It is a hybrid modality, combining the high-contrast and spectroscopic-based specificity of optical imaging with the high spatial resolution of ultrasound ...

Multimodal Actuation and Environment Adaptive Strategies of Bio‐Inspired Micro/Nanorobots in Precision Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
An introduction for multidrive and environment‐adaptive micro/nanorobotics: design and fabrication strategies, intelligent actuation, and their applications. Various intelligent actuation approaches—magnetic, acoustic, optical, chemical, and biological—can be synergistically designed to enhance flexibility and adaptive behavior for precision medicine ...

Photoacoustic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics, 2019
In this paper, a new imaging modality, named photoacoustic resonance imaging (PARI), is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. Being distinct from conventional single nanosecond laser pulse induced wideband PA signal, the proposed PARI method utilizes multiburst modulated laser source to induce PA resonant signal with enhanced signal strength and ...

Copper and Iron‐Based Metal‐Organic Frameworks for Synergistic Cancer Phototherapies: Recent Advances, Challenges, and Future Prospects

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the combined effect of PTT and PDT using metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) in a cancer treatment model. Tumor‐bearing mice are irradiated with different laser lights, which activate the MOF nanoparticles within cancer cells. The MOFs produce reactive oxygen species through PDT, while PTT elevates the temperature to kill

Real-Time Assessment of Tissue Hypoxia In Vivo with Combined Photoacoustics and High-Frequency Ultrasound

open access: yesTheranostics, 2014
Purpose: In preclinical cancer studies, non-invasive functional imaging has become an important tool to assess tumor development and therapeutic effects. Tumor hypoxia is closely associated with tumor aggressiveness and is therefore a key parameter to be

Brain‐Wide Spatiotemporally Distinct Traveling Waves Drive Anxiety‐Like Behaviors in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
J.Liu et al. reveal the complete propagation dynamics of cortical traveling waves, from local circuitry initiation to long‐range propagation, and identify their functional relevance in modulating anxiety‐like behaviors and underlying cellular neuroplasticity in mice.

Systematic Targeting of GD2‐Positive Neuroblastoma Tumors With a Photooncolytic Phage Nanovector Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A tumor‐penetrating photooncolytic phage is developed for selectively targeting and delivering photosensitizers to GD2‐positive Neuroblastoma cells. Upon light activation, it precisely induces oncolysis of GD2‐positive cells with no effect on GD2‐negative ones.

Overcoming the acoustic diffraction limit in photoacoustic imaging by localization of flowing absorbers

open access: yes, 2017
The resolution of photoacoustic imaging deep inside scattering media is limited by the acoustic diffraction limit. In this work, taking inspiration from super-resolution imaging techniques developed to beat the optical diffraction limit, we demonstrate ...

Prospects of photoacoustic tomography

open access: yesMedical Physics, 2008
Commercially available high‐resolution three‐dimensional optical imaging modalities—including confocal microscopy, two‐photon microscopy, and optical coherence tomography—have fundamentally impacted biomedicine. Unfortunately, such tools cannot penetrate biological tissue deeper than the optical transport mean free path( in the skin).
