DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The concentration, oxygenation, and flow characteristics of blood cells in the microvasculature profoundly affect nourishment and thermal regulation of surrounding tissues, abdnormal levels of these quantities will affect oxygen extraction and can potentially compromise surrounding tissue, ln-situ measurements of any one of these basic blood parameters provide insight about many physiological phenomena including cerebral metabolism and functional heterogeneity, internal bleeding, tumor vasculature, and ischemia. Measurement of more than one of these quantities simultaneously provides even deeper insight into fundamental tissue physiology, and offers the possibility to directly probe tissue oxygen metabolism. In this proposal we are concerned with measurement of these quantities in brain, ultimately human brain. Thus far a broad range of non-invasive techniques has been used to probe activity in the cerebral cortex. This proposal seeks to add a new technique to this arsenal. In particular we propose to construct and use a versatile multi-modality all-optical imaging probe for measurement of total hemoglobin concentration, blood oxygenation, blood flow, the cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen (CMRO2) and changes thereof in brain. The instrument is unusual in that it combines two qualitately different and complementary diffuse optical imaging modalities: (1) Diffuse Reflection Spectroscopy (DRS) for computation of blood oxygen saturation and total hemoglobin concentration, and (2) Diffuse Correlation Spectroscopy (DCS) for measurement ot blood flow. We anticipate this instrument and its variants will provide three-dimensional imaging of these properties in small animal brain, and will provide similar regional imaging information in human brain. The two diffuse optical imaging schemes are attractive new approaches for evaluating cerebral physiology. They can provide hemodynamic and metabolic imaging contrasts complementary to those of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET), and hold a unique potential for continous noninvasive bedside imaging in humans and densely sampled longitudinal studies in animals.

描述(申请人提供)：微血管中血细胞的浓度、氧合和流动特性深刻影响周围组织的营养和热调节，这些数量的异常水平将影响氧气提取并可能危及周围组织，这些基本血液参数中的任何一项的原位测量都可以深入了解许多生理现象，包括大脑代谢和功能异质性、内出血、肿瘤血管和缺血。同时测量这些量中的一个以上可以更深入地了解基本的组织生理学，并提供直接探测组织氧代谢的可能性。在这项提议中，我们关注的是对大脑中这些量的测量，最终是人脑。到目前为止，已经使用了广泛的非侵入性技术来探测大脑皮层的活动。这项提议旨在为这个武器库增加一项新技术。特别是，我们建议构建和使用一种多功能的多模式全光学成像探头来测量总血红蛋白浓度、血液氧合、血流量、脑氧代谢率(CMRO2)及其在脑中的变化。该仪器的不同寻常之处在于，它结合了两种完全不同和互补的漫反射光学成像模式：(1)用于计算血氧饱和度和总血红蛋白浓度的漫反射光谱(DRS)，以及(2)用于测量血流的漫反射光谱(DCS)。我们预计，该仪器及其变种将在小动物大脑中提供这些特性的三维成像，并将在人类大脑中提供类似的区域成像信息。这两种漫反射光学成像方案是评价脑生理学的有吸引力的新方法。它们可以提供与磁共振成像(MRI)和正电子发射断层扫描(PET)互补的血流动力学和代谢成像对比，并在人类连续无创床边成像和动物密集采样纵向研究中具有独特的潜力。
