MRI: Development of a Multi-Modal Optical Coherence Microscope

在一个为期三年的仪器开发计划中，将开发新一代非侵入性定量三维显微技术，专门用于对小动物的发育和基因表达的纵向(非破坏性)研究。该仪器将整合光学相干层析成像(OCT)和光学相干显微镜(OCM)的最新发展，这两种技术使用尖端的超高带宽光通信技术在包括活生物组织在内的半透明材料中进行微米级分辨率的非接触成像。

0216403IzattOver a three year instrument development program, a new generation of noninvasive quantitative three-dimensional microscopy technology specialized for longitudinal (nondestructive) studies of development and gene expression in small animals will be developed. This instrument will integrate recent developments in optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence microscopy (OCM), which employ cutting-edge ultrahigh-bandwidth optical communications technologies for micron-scale resolution non-contact imaging in translucent materials including living biological tissues.
