MRI Visualization of Injectable Ureidopyrimidinone Hydrogelators by Supramolecular Contrast Agent Labeling

TL;DR: An injectable supramolecular ureidopyrimidinone‐based hydrogel is functionalized with a modified Gadolinium(III)‐DOTA complex (UPy‐Gd) for contrast enhanced MRI to enable high‐quality imaging of this hydrogels.

Photoacoustic Tomography: In Vivo Imaging from Organelles to Organs

TL;DR: A review of the state of the art of photoacoustic tomography for both biological and clinical studies can be found in this paper, where the authors discuss the current state-of-the-art and discuss future prospects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optical coherence tomography for ultrahigh resolution in vivo imaging

TL;DR: Optical coherence tomography functions as a type of 'optical biopsy' to provide cross-sectional images of tissue structure on the micron scale and is a promising imaging technology because it can provide images of tissues in situ and in real time, without the need for excision and processing of specimens.

Dual delivery of an angiogenic and an osteogenic growth factor for bone regeneration in a critical size defect model

TL;DR: The results indicate that delivery of both growth factors may enhance bone bridging and union of the critical size defect compared to delivery of BMP-2 alone and suggests an interplay between these growth factors for early bone regeneration.
