Velocity range estimation for liquid flow based on optical micro-angiography

Optical micro-angiography (OMAG) is widely used in vivo imaging due to its non-invasive and highly sensitive measurements. It can effectively distinguish flowing and stationary particles for applications such as micro-size blood vessel. However, the detectable flow velocity of OMAG is restricted by the system parameters. Their relationship is usually unknown and thus increase the difficulty of OMAG application on liquid flow measurements. This study for the first time proposes a velocity range estimation formula to quantify the measurable velocity range of liquid flow for the OMAG and the ultrahigh-sensitivity OMAG (UHS-OMAG) methods. The velocity range not only provides rough velocity ...
