Handheld multispectral fluorescence lifetime imaging system for in vivo applications.
There is an increasing interest in the application of fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) for medical diagnosis. Central to the clinical translation of FLIM technology is the development of compact and high-speed clinically compatible systems. We present a handheld probe design consisting of a small maneuverable box fitted with a rigid endoscope, capable of continuous lifetime imaging at multi...
متن کاملFlexible endoscope for continuous in vivo multispectral fluorescence lifetime imaging.
Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) offers a noninvasive approach for characterizing the biochemical composition of biological tissue. There has been an increasing interest in the application of multispectral FLIM for medical diagnosis. Central to the clinical translation of FLIM technology is the development of compact and high-speed endoscopy systems. Unfortunately, the predominant multispec...
متن کاملTomographic fluorescence lifetime imaging
Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) is a well-established technique (Bastiaens and Squire 1999; Berezovska et al. 2003; Selvin 2000; Vogel et al. 2006) that combines microscopic techniques with time-resolved detection to provide high-resolution lifetime images of thin tissue sections. This chapter concerns the in vivo time domain imaging of fluorescent contrast agents embedded in de...
متن کاملFluorescence lifetime imaging ophthalmoscopy
Imaging techniques based on retinal autofluorescence have found broad applications in ophthalmology because they are extremely sensitive and noninvasive. Conventional fundus autofluorescence imaging measures fluorescence intensity of endogenous retinal fluorophores. It mainly derives its signal from lipofuscin at the level of the retinal pigment epithelium. Fundus autofluorescence, however, can...
متن کاملStroboscopic fluorescence lifetime imaging.
We report a fluorescence lifetime imaging technique that uses the time integrated response to a periodic optical excitation, eliminating the need for time resolution in detection. A Dirac pulse train of variable period is used to probe the frequency response of the total fluorescence per pulse leading to a frequency roll-off that is dependent on the relaxation rate of the fluorophores. The tech...
