Three-dimensional echo planar imaging with controlled aliasing: A sequence for high temporal resolution functional MRI.
PURPOSE In this work, we combine three-dimensional echo planar imaging (3D-EPI) with controlled aliasing to substantially increase temporal resolution in whole-brain functional MRI (fMRI) while minimizing geometry-factor (g-factor) losses. THEORY AND METHODS The study was performed on a 7 Tesla scanner equipped with a 32-channel receive coil. The proposed 3D-EPI-CAIPI sequence was evaluated f...
متن کاملA novel microfluidic platform for high-resolution imaging of a three-dimensional cell culture under a controlled hypoxic environment.
Low oxygen tensions experienced in various pathological and physiological conditions are a major stimulus for angiogenesis. Hypoxic conditions play a critical role in regulating cellular behaviour including migration, proliferation and differentiation. This study introduces the use of a microfluidic device that allows for the control of oxygen tension for the study of different three-dimensiona...
متن کاملHigh-resolution three-dimensional imaging of plant tissues.
The study of plant development relies on techniques for the accurate visualization of plant tissue structure to understand cell patterning and patterns of gene expression. Current techniques for threedimensional (3D) imaging are limited with respect to the thickness of tissue that may be studied and the resolution that may be achieved. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) of living plant t...
متن کاملHigh-resolution three-dimensional partially coherent diffraction imaging.
The wave properties of light, particularly its coherence, are responsible for interference effects, which can be exploited in powerful imaging applications. Coherent diffractive imaging relies heavily on coherence and has recently experienced rapid growth. Coherent diffractive imaging recovers an object from its diffraction pattern by computational phasing with the potential of wavelength-limit...
متن کاملLive-cell multiplane three-dimensional super-resolution optical fluctuation imaging
Super-resolution optical fluctuation imaging (SOFI) provides an elegant way of overcoming the diffraction limit in all three spatial dimensions by computing higher-order cumulants of image sequences of blinking fluorophores acquired with a classical widefield microscope. Previously, three-dimensional (3D) SOFI has been demonstrated by sequential imaging of multiple depth positions. Here we intr...
