Polarization-sensitive optical projection tomography for muscle fiber imaging
Optical projection tomography (OPT) is a tool used for three-dimensional imaging of millimeter-scale biological samples, with the advantage of exhibiting isotropic resolution typically in the micron range. OPT can be divided into two types: transmission OPT (tOPT) and emission OPT (eOPT). Compared with eOPT, tOPT discriminates different tissues based on their absorption coefficient, either intr...
متن کاملPolarization-based diffuse reflectance imaging for noninvasive measurement of glucose.
BACKGROUND The ability to measure glucose concentration through noninvasive approaches would impact the treatment of diabetes significantly. Polarization-based optical approaches have received considerable interest because of their potential medical applications. Glucose, a chiral molecule, has the ability to rotate the plane of linearly polarized light, commonly referred to as optical activity...
متن کاملIn vivo detection of exercised-induced ultrastructural changes in genetically-altered murine skeletal muscle using polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography.
Skeletal muscle fibers are a known source of form birefringence in biological tissue. The birefringence present in skeletal muscle is associated with the ultrastructure of individual sarcomeres, specifically the arrangement of A-bands corresponding to the thick myosin filaments. Certain structural proteins that prevent damage and maintain the structural and functional health of the muscle fiber...
متن کاملStrophanthidin-sensitive sodium fluxes in metabolically poisoned frog skeletal muscle
Strophanthidin-sensitive and insensitive unidirectional fluxes of Na were measured in fog sartorius muscles whose internal Na levels were elevated by overnight storage in the cold. ATP levels were lowered, and ADP levels raised, by metabolic poisoning with either 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene or iodoacetamide. Strophanthidin-sensitive Na efflux and influx both increased after poisoning, while stroph...
متن کاملPerfusion Tensor Imaging of Human Skeletal Muscle
Introduction: The ability to non-invasively measure tissue perfusion is critical for assessing the physiological functions of human skeletal muscle in both healthy and disease states. The traditional techniques to measure tissue perfusion in human muscle are invasive and measure only bulk properties which do not render information on either spatial or temporal heterogeneity. Velocity selective ...
