Wide-field polygon-scanning photoacoustic microscopy of oxygen saturation at 1-MHz A-line rate.

ABSTRACT: We report wide-field polygon-scanning functional OR-PAM that for the first time achieves 1-MHz A-line rate of oxygen saturation in vivo. We address two technical challenges. The first is a 1-MHz dual-wavelength pulsed laser that has sufficient pulse energy and ultrafast wavelength switching. The second is a polygon-scanning imaging probe that has a fast scanning speed, a large field of view, and great sensitivity. The OR-PAM system offers a B-scan rate of 477.5 Hz in a 12-mm range and a volumetric imaging rate of ?1 Hz over a 12 × 5 mm2 scanning area. We image microvasculature and blood oxygen saturation in a 12 × 12 mm2 scanning area in 5 s. Dynamic imaging of oxygen saturation in the mouse ear is demonstrated to monitor fast response to epinephrine injection. The new wide-field fast functional imaging ability broadens the biomedical application of OR-PAM.

Dual-foci fast-scanning photoacoustic microscopy with 3.2-MHz A-line rate.

Project description:We report fiber-based dual-foci fast-scanning OR-PAM that can double the scanning rate without compromising the imaging resolution, the field of view, and the detection sensitivity. To achieve fast scanning speed, the OR-PAM system uses a single-axis water-immersible resonant scanning mirror that can confocally scan the optical and acoustic beams at 1018 Hz with a 3-mm range. Pulse energies of 45∼100-nJ are sufficient for acquiring vascular and oxygen-saturation images. The dual-foci method can double the B-scan rate to 2036 Hz. Using two lasers and stimulated Raman scattering, we achieve dual-wavelength excitation on both foci, and the total A-line rate is 3.2-MHz. In in vivo experiments, we inject epinephrine and monitor the hemodynamic and oxygen saturation response in the peripheral vessels at 1.7 Hz over 2.5 × 6.7 mm2. Dual-foci OR-PAM offers a new imaging tool for the study of fast physiological and pathological changes.

Visualizing tumor angiogenesis and boundary with polygon-scanning multiscale photoacoustic microscopy.

Project description:Recently, we developed an integrated optical-resolution (OR) and acoustic-resolution (AR) PAM, which has multiscale imaging capability using different resolutions. However, limited by the scanning method, a tradeoff exists between the imaging speed and field of view, which impedes its wider applications. Here, we present an improved multiscale PAM which achieves high-speed wide-field imaging based on a homemade polygon scanner. Encoder trigger mode was proposed to avoid jittering of the polygon scanner during imaging. Distortions caused by polygon scanning were analyzed theoretically and compared with traditional types of distortions in optical-scanning PAM. Then a depth correction method was proposed and verified to compensate for the distortions. System characterization of OR-PAM and AR-PAM was performed prior to in vivo imaging. Blood reperfusion of an in vivo mouse ear was imaged continuously to demonstrate the feasibility of the multiscale PAM for high-speed imaging. Results showed that the maximum B-scan rate could be 14.65 Hz in a fixed range of 10 mm. Compared with our previous multiscale system, the imaging speed of the improved system was increased by a factor of 12.35. In vivo imaging of a subcutaneously inoculated B-16 melanoma of a mouse was performed. Results showed that the blood vasculature around the melanoma could be resolved and the melanoma could be visualized at a depth up to 1.6 mm using the multiscale PAM.

Wide-field fast-scanning photoacoustic microscopy based on a water-immersible MEMS scanning mirror.

Project description:By offering images with high spatial resolution and unique optical absorption contrast, optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy (OR-PAM) has gained increasing attention in biomedical research. Recent developments in OR-PAM have improved its imaging speed, but have to sacrifice either the detection sensitivity or field of view or both. We have developed a wide-field fast-scanning OR-PAM by using a water-immersible microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) scanning mirror (MEMS-OR-PAM). In MEMS-OR-PAM, the optical and acoustic beams are confocally configured and simultaneously steered, which ensures the uniform detection sensitivity. A B-scan imaging speed as high as 400 Hz can be achieved over a 3 mm scanning range. Using the system, we imaged the flow dynamics of both red blood cells and carbon particles in a mouse ear in vivo. Presented results show that MEMS-OR-PAM could be a powerful tool for studying highly dynamic and time-sensitive biological phenomena.

Oxygen Saturation Imaging Using LED-Based Photoacoustic System.

Project description:Oxygen saturation imaging has potential in several preclinical and clinical applications. Dual-wavelength LED array-based photoacoustic oxygen saturation imaging can be an affordable solution in this case. For the translation of this technology, there is a need to improve its accuracy and validate it against ground truth methods. We propose a fluence compensated oxygen saturation imaging method, utilizing structural information from the ultrasound image, and prior knowledge of the optical properties of the tissue with a Monte-Carlo based light propagation model for the dual-wavelength LED array configuration. We then validate the proposed method with oximeter measurements in tissue-mimicking phantoms. Further, we demonstrate in vivo imaging on small animal and a human subject. We conclude that the proposed oxygen saturation imaging can be used to image tissue at a depth of 6-8 mm in both preclinical and clinical applications.

Video-rate functional photoacoustic microscopy at depths.

Project description:We report the development of functional photoacoustic microscopy capable of video-rate high-resolution in vivo imaging in deep tissue. A lightweight photoacoustic probe is made of a single-element broadband ultrasound transducer, a compact photoacoustic beam combiner, and a bright-field light delivery system. Focused broadband ultrasound detection provides a 44-μm lateral resolution and a 28-μm axial resolution based on the envelope (a 15-μm axial resolution based on the raw RF signal). Due to the efficient bright-field light delivery, the system can image as deep as 4.8 mm in vivo using low excitation pulse energy (28 μJ per pulse, 0.35 mJ/cm² on the skin surface). The photoacoustic probe is mounted on a fast-scanning voice-coil scanner to acquire 40 two-dimensional (2-D) B-scan images per second over a 9-mm range. High-resolution anatomical imaging is demonstrated in the mouse ear and brain. Via fast dual-wavelength switching, oxygen dynamics of mouse cardio-vasculature is imaged in realtime as well.

In vivo photoacoustic microscopy with 7.6-µm axial resolution using a commercial 125-MHz ultrasonic transducer.

Project description:Photoacoustic microscopy has achieved submicron lateral resolution, but its axial resolution is much lower. Here an axial resolution of 7.6 ?m, the highest axial resolution validated by experimental data, has been achieved by using a commercial 125 MHz ultrasonic transducer for signal detection followed by the Wiener deconvolution for signal processing. Limited by the working distance, the high-frequency ultrasonic transducer can penetrate 1.2 mm into biological tissue from the ultrasound detection side. At this depth, the signal-to-noise ratio decreases by 11 dB, and the axial resolution degrades by 36%. The new system was demonstrated in imaging melanoma cells ex vivo and mouse ears in vivo.

Real-time GPU-accelerated processing and volumetric display for wide-field laser-scanning optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy.

Project description:Fast signal processing and real-time displays are essential for practical imaging modality in various fields of applications. However, the imaging speed in optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy (OR-PAM), in particular, depends on factors such as the pulse repetition rate of the laser, scanning method, field of view (FOV), and signal processing time. In the past, efforts to increase acquisition speed either focused on developing new scanning methods or using lasers with higher pulse repetition rates. However, high-speed signal processing is also important for real-time volumetric display in OR-PAM. In this study, we carried out parallel signal processing using a graphics processing unit (GPU) to enable fast signal processing and wide-field real-time displays in laser-scanning OR-PAM. The average total GPU processing time for a B-mode PAM image was approximately 1.35 ms at a display speed of 480 fps when the data samples were acquired with 736 (axial) × 500 (lateral) points/B-mode-frame at a pulse repetition rate of 300 kHz. In addition, we successfully displayed maximum amplitude projection images of a mouse's ear as volumetric images with an FOV of 3 mm × 3 mm (500 × 500 pixels) at 1.02 s, corresponding to 0.98 fps.

Laser-scanning Doppler photoacoustic microscopy based on temporal correlation.

Project description:We present a methodology to measure absolute flow velocity using laser-scanning photoacoustic microscopy. To obtain the Doppler angle, the angle between ultrasonic detection axis and flow direction, we extracted the distances between the transducer and three adjacent scanning points along the flow and repeatedly applied the law of cosines. To measure flow velocity along the ultrasonic detection axis, we calculated the time shift between two consecutive photoacoustic waves at the same scanning point, then converted the time shift to velocity according to the sound velocity and time interval between two laser illuminations. We verified our method by imaging flow phantoms.

Toward accurate quantitative photoacoustic imaging: learning vascular blood oxygen saturation in three dimensions.

Project description:SIGNIFICANCE:Two-dimensional (2-D) fully convolutional neural networks have been shown capable of producing maps of sO2 from 2-D simulated images of simple tissue models. However, their potential to produce accurate estimates in vivo is uncertain as they are limited by the 2-D nature of the training data when the problem is inherently three-dimensional (3-D), and they have not been tested with realistic images. AIM:To demonstrate the capability of deep neural networks to process whole 3-D images and output 3-D maps of vascular sO2 from realistic tissue models/images. APPROACH:Two separate fully convolutional neural networks were trained to produce 3-D maps of vascular blood oxygen saturation and vessel positions from multiwavelength simulated images of tissue models. RESULTS:The mean of the absolute difference between the true mean vessel sO2 and the network output for 40 examples was 4.4% and the standard deviation was 4.5%. CONCLUSIONS:3-D fully convolutional networks were shown capable of producing accurate sO2 maps using the full extent of spatial information contained within 3-D images generated under conditions mimicking real imaging scenarios. We demonstrate that networks can cope with some of the confounding effects present in real images such as limited-view artifacts and have the potential to produce accurate estimates in vivo.

Label-free oxygen-metabolic photoacoustic microscopy in vivo.

Project description:Almost all diseases, especially cancer and diabetes, manifest abnormal oxygen metabolism. Accurately measuring the metabolic rate of oxygen (MRO(2)) can be helpful for fundamental pathophysiological studies, and even early diagnosis and treatment of disease. Current techniques either lack high resolution or rely on exogenous contrast. Here, we propose label-free metabolic photoacoustic microscopy (mPAM) with small vessel resolution to noninvasively quantify MRO(2) in vivo in absolute units. mPAM is the unique modality for simultaneously imaging all five anatomical, chemical, and fluid-dynamic parameters required for such quantification: tissue volume, vessel cross-section, concentration of hemoglobin, oxygen saturation of hemoglobin, and blood flow speed. Hyperthermia, cryotherapy, melanoma, and glioblastoma were longitudinally imaged in vivo. Counterintuitively, increased MRO(2) does not necessarily cause hypoxia or increase oxygen extraction. In fact, early-stage cancer was found to be hyperoxic despite hypermetabolism.
