Probing the photophysical properties of fluorescent proteins using photoacoustic pump-probe spectroscopy and imaging

Author(s): Farzin Ghane Golmohamadi, Amna Mehmood, Hoang Trong Phan, Franz-Josef Schmitt, Jan Laufer ABSTRACT Pump-probe excitation of fluorophores has been shown to overcome the limitations of conventional multiwavelength imaging and linear unmixing approaches by providing fluorophore-specific contrast whilst eliminating the dominant background signal of endogenous chromophores. In this study, methods for generating pump-probe signals and images are investigated that […]

A 3D IMAGING SYSTEM INTEGRATING PHOTOACOUSTIC AND FLUORESCENCE ORTHOGONAL PROJECTIONS FOR ANATOMICAL, FUNCTIONAL, AND MOLECULAR ASSESSMENT OF RODENT MODELS

16 March 2018 Authors: Hans P. Brecht, Vassili Ivanov, Diego S. Dumani, Stanislav Y. Emelianov, Mark A. Anastasio, Sergey A. Ermilov ABSTRACT We have developed a preclinical 3D imaging instrument integrating photoacoustic tomography and fluorescence (PAFT) addressing known deficiencies in sensitivity and spatial resolution of the individual imaging components. PAFT is designed for simultaneous acquisition of photoacoustic and fluorescence orthogonal […]
