Journal ArticleDOI

In situ conversion of porphyrin microbubbles to nanoparticles for multimodality imaging

TL;DR: This work shows the conversion of microbubbles to nanoparticles using low-frequency ultrasound and shows that this conversion is possible in tumour-bearing mice and could be validated using photoacoustic imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methylene blue microbubbles as a model dual-modality contrast agent for ultrasound and activatable photoacoustic imaging

TL;DR: Using an MB2 solution that strongly attenuated all photoac acoustic signal, high powered ultrasound could be used to burst the microbubbles and dramatically enhance photoacoustic contrast (>800-fold increase), providing a new method for spatiotemporal control ofphotoacoustic signal generation.
Journal ArticleDOI

In situ 24 kHz coherent imaging of morphology change in laser percussion drilling

TL;DR: Analysis of sample morphology changes during and between percussion drilling pulses by integrating a low-coherence microscope into a laser micromachining platform shows dramatic differences in the material removal process dependent on pulse duration/peak power and material.
Journal ArticleDOI

Real-time guidance of thermal and ultrashort pulsed laser ablation in hard tissue using inline coherent imaging.

TL;DR: This work monitors incision depth as it progresses, providing feedback to ensure that material removal occurs within a localized target volume, reducing the possibility of undesirable damage to tissues below the incision.
Journal ArticleDOI

Automatic real-time guidance of laser machining with inline coherent imaging

TL;DR: Optical coherence imaging can measure hole depth in real-time (>20 kHz) during laser drilling without being blinded by intense machining light or incoherent plasma emissions as mentioned in this paper, which is useful for process development and quality control in a variety of materials including metals, semiconductors, and dielectrics.
