Lipids and proteins in the plasma membrane are laterally heterogeneous and formalised as lipid rafts featuring unique biophysical properties. However, the self‐assembly mechanism of lipid raft cannot be revealed even its physical properties and components were determined in specific physiological processes. In this study, two‐photon generalised polarisation imaging and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy were used to study the fusion of lipid rafts through the membrane phase and the lateral diffusion...

An elevated relative moisture in the external ear canal and middle ear cavity may predispose to chronic otorrhea and related infections along with abnormal tympanic membrane (TM) vibration patterns. Therefore, phase shift‐resolved optical Doppler vibrography (ODV) was used for vibration assessments of moisture influenced cadaveric TM. ODV was applied to generate time resolved cross‐sectional and volumetric vibrographs of a cadaveric TM, driven acoustically at several frequencies. In order to analyze...

Abstract Doppler optical coherence tomography (OCT) offers additional flow velocity information, which extends the application of OCT. Phase wrapping is the inherent problem that limits measureable range of Doppler OCT. We propose a phase unwrapping method which is suitable for correcting phase in Doppler OCT images. Points (pixels) in flow region are divided into groups according to the radial distance. Points in the same group are supposed to have close velocity. Phase unwrapping algorithm begins...

Abstract Aim Previous studies on spinal cord injury (SCI) have confirmed that percutaneous photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy can ameliorate immunoinflammatory responses at sites of injury, accelerate nerve regeneration, suppress glial scar formation, and promote the subsequent recovery of locomotor function. The current study was performed to evaluate a large‐animal model employing implanted optical fibers to accurately irradiate targeted spinal segments. The method's feasibility and irradiation...

We describe a novel scanning approach for miniaturized photoacoustic tomography (PAT), based on fan‐shaped scanning of a single transducer at one or two discrete positions. This approach is tested and evaluated using several phantom and animal experiments. The results obtained show that this new scanning approach provides high image quality in the configuration of miniaturized handheld or endoscopic PAT with improved effective field of view and penetration depth.
