Visualization of mouse kidney perfusion with multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT) at video rate

Abstract

Optoacoustic tomography can visualize optical contrast in tissues while capitalizing on the advantages of ultrasound, such as high spatial resolution and fast imaging capabilities. We report herein on a novel multi-spectral optoacoustic tomography system capable of resolving dynamic contrast at video rate and showcase its performance by monitoring kidney perfusion after injection of Indocyaningreen (ICG).
