Orientation Matters: Polarization Dependent IR Spectroscopy of Collagen from Intact Tendon Down to the Single Fibril Level

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Infrared (IR) spectroscopy has been used for decades to study collagen in mammalian tissues. While many changes in the spectral profiles appear under polarized IR light, the absorption bands are naturally broad because of tissue heterogeneity.

Photothermal strain imaging [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Optics, 2017
Vulnerable plaques are the major cause of cardiovascular disease, but they are difficult to detect with conventional intravascular imaging techniques. Techniques are needed to identify plaque vulnerability based on the presence of lipids in plaque. Thermal strain imaging (TSI) is an imaging technique based on ultrasound (US) wave propagation speed ...
