Real-Time Imaging of Circulating Individual Blood Cells in Mammalian Embryos with Doppler SS-OCT
Explore Article SpringerLink Home (May 20 2009) Cardiology
Congenital cardiovascular (CV) defects are present in approximately 1% of live births. Moreover, among deaths due to birth defects, cardiovascular failures are the most likely. Therefore, characterization of mammalian embryonic cardio dynamics and understanding of the hemodynamic changes that occur during embryonic development is crucial for improving diagnostics, prevention, and treatment of cardiovascular defects and diseases. In this work, we combined Swept Source Optical Coherence Tomography (SSOCT) with live mouse embryo culture protocols to generate structural 2-D and 3-D imaging and hemodynamic measurements in live 8.5 day embryos. Our data show that individual circulating blood cells can be visualized with ... (Read Full Article)

Opt Lett. 2001 Jul 1;26(13):992-4 Authors: Esenaliev RO, Larin KV, Larina IV, Motamedi M We have proposed a tested in tissue phantoms and in vivo a novel sensor based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) for noninvasive and continuous monitoring of blood glucose concentration. OCT images were obtained from pig and rabbit skin before and after glucose administration. Slopes of OCT signals decreased substantially (~40% in tissues in vivo) and linearly with the increase of blood glucose concentration from 4 to 30 mM, typical for normal and diabetic subjects. Phantom ... (Read Full Article)
