Multimodal Brain Imaging with Photoacoustics

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging was performed using the Vevo LAZR photoacoustic micro-ultrasound imaging system (FUJIFILM VisualSonics, Toronto, Canada). All images including B-Mode imaging for high-resolution anatomical images, color Doppler imaging for blood flow in cerebral vessels, and photoacoustic imaging for oxygen saturation (SaO2) were generated with the LZ250 transducer at 21 MHz. Parametric maps of oxygen saturation in coronal sections of the brain co-registered with the B-Mode images were generated using a dual-wavelength approach22 . Regions of interest (ROIs) were drawn to encompass the left and right cortical regions of the brain and SaO2 values were plotted over time.

Carotid Artery Imaging in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were anesthetized under 2.5% isoflurane and then placed on a special console (animal handling and physical monitoring platform), and isoflurane concentration was adjusted to the maintenance level of 1.0–1.5%. Mouse ultrasound imaging was performed with the Vevo LAZR photoacoustic micro-ultrasound imaging system (FujiFilm, VisualSonics Inc., Tokyo, Japan). Once the carotid artery was clearly displayed, the probe was adjusted so that the ultrasonic beam was perpendicular to the anterior and posterior walls of the left common carotid artery, and the intima-media of the artery’s anterior and posterior walls was displayed. High-resolution anatomic carotid allograft images were generated with the MS550D transducer at 40 MHz.

Characterization of Multifunctional Polymer Gel

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The structure of the polymer was confirmed by Bruker NMR spectrometer (using deuterated DMSO as the solvent). The chemical groups of the composite are characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR, PerkinElmer model 1600-FTIR). The rheological properties of the gel were determined by a rheometer (Discovery Hybrid Rheometer (HR2), TA instruments.). The sol-gel transition of the PDNPs-PELA solution is demonstrated by flip test. The morphology of PDNPs in the gel was characterized by FEI Tecnai F20 transmission electron microscope. Photoacoustic imaging was captured using the Vevo LAZR photoacoustic-micro-ultrasound imaging system (FUJIFILM VisualSonics, Toronto, Canada) with a 21 MHz center frequency probe. The particle size was measured using DLS (Malvern, Zetasizer Nano ZS90).

Photoacoustic Imaging of Cortical Oxygen Saturation in Rat Pups

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cortical oxygen saturation (sO2) was measured using the Vevo LAZR photoacoustic micro-ultrasound imaging system with the LZ250 transducer at 21 MHz as described previously (FUJIFILM VisualSonics) (Sun et al., 2015 (link)). Due to the measurement difficulty of photoacoustic probe in small mouse pups, we used P7 rat pup in Fig. 2A-B. The sO2 images in coronal brain sections were superimposed with the B-Mode images and parametric maps of oxygen saturation and quantified the left and right cortical regions.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
