AbstractIn vivo, minimally invasive microscopy in deep cortical and sub-cortical regions of the mouse brain has been challenging. To address this challenge, we present an in vivo high numerical aperture optical coherence microscopy (OCM) approach that fully utilizes the water absorption window around 1700 nm, where ballistic attenuation in the brain is minimized. Key issues, including detector noise, excess light source noise, chromatic dispersion, and the resolution-speckle tradeoff, are analyzed and optimized. Imaging through a thinned-skull preparation that preserves intracranial space, we present volumetric imaging of cytoarchitecture and myeloarchitecture across the entire depth of the mouse neocortex, and some sub-cortical regions. In an Alzheimer’s disease model, we report that findings in superficial and deep cortical layers diverge, highlighting the importance of deep optical biopsy. Compared to other microscopic techniques, our 1700 nm OCM approach achieves a unique combination of intrinsic contrast, minimal invasiveness, and high resolution for deep brain imaging.

AbstractPhotoacoustic microscopy is an in vivo imaging technology based on the photoacoustic effect. It is widely used in various biomedical studies because it can provide high-resolution images while being label-free, safe, and harmless to biological tissue. Polygon-scanning is an effective scanning method in photoacoustic microscopy that can realize fast imaging of biological tissue with a large field of view. However, in polygon-scanning, fluctuations of the rotating motor speed and the geometric error of the rotating mirror cause image distortions, which seriously affect the photoacoustic-microscopy imaging quality. To improve the image quality of photoacoustic microscopy using polygon-scanning, an image correction method is proposed based on accurate ultrasound positioning. In this method, the photoacoustic and ultrasound imaging data of the sample are simultaneously obtained, and the angle information of each mirror used in the polygon-scanning is extracted from the ultrasonic data to correct the photoacoustic images. Experimental results show that the proposed method can significantly reduce image distortions in photoacoustic microscopy, with the image dislocation offset decreasing from 24.774 to 10.365 μm.

AbstractLaser diodes (LDs) have been considered as cost-effective and compact excitation sources to overcome the requirement of costly and bulky pulsed laser sources that are commonly used in photoacoustic microscopy (PAM). However, the spatial resolution and/or imaging speed of previously reported LD-based PAM systems have not been optimized simultaneously. In this paper, we developed a high-speed and high-resolution LD-based PAM system using a continuous wave LD, operating at a pulsed mode, with a repetition rate of 30 kHz, as an excitation source. A hybrid scanning mechanism that synchronizes a one-dimensional galvanometer mirror and a two-dimensional motorized stage is applied to achieve a fast imaging capability without signal averaging due to the high signal-to-noise ratio. By optimizing the optical system, a high lateral resolution of 4.8 μm has been achieved. In vivo microvasculature imaging of a mouse ear has been demonstrated to show the high performance of our LD-based PAM system.
