Non-Invasive Longitudinal Bioluminescence Imaging of Human Mesoangioblasts in Bioengineered Esophagi.
Claire Crowley,Colin R. Butler,Colin R. Butler,Carlotta Camilli,Robert E. Hynds,Krishna K. Kolluri,Sam M. Janes,Paolo De Coppi,Luca Urbani,Luca Urbani +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that bioluminescence imaging (BLI) is a suitable method to track human mesoangioblast seeding of an esophageal tubular construct at every stage of the preclinical bioengineering pipeline and allow quantitative cell tracking at multiple stages of the bioengineering preclinical pipeline.

Functional Analysis of Vascularized Collagen/Fibrin Templates by MRI In Vivo
Weilun Sun,Yi Sun,Agnieszka S. Klar,Paul J. Geutjes,Ernst Reichmann,Arend Heerschap,Egbert Oosterwijk +6 more
TL;DR: For tissue engineering purposes, contrast-enhanced MRI appears to be an attractive tool to evaluate the vascular outcome longitudinally without the need to sacrifice animals and the functional information can be superimposed on the static histological information.

BMIT facility at the Canadian Light Source: Advances in X-ray phase-sensitive imaging.
Tomasz W. Wysokinski,Juan P. Ianowski,Xiaojie Luan,George Belev,Denise Miller,M. A. Webb,Ning Zhu,Dean Chapman,Dean Chapman +8 more
TL;DR: The BioMedical Imaging and Therapy (BMIT) facility, located at the Canadian Light Source, provides synchrotron-specific imaging and radiation therapy capabilities, with a number of imaging techniques including standard absorption X-ray imaging, K-edge subtraction imaging (KES), in-line phase contrast imaging and Diffraction Enhanced Imaging/Analyzer Based Imaging (DEI/ABI).

TL;DR: Electrospun scaffolds based on polycaprolactone and iodixanol had similar performance with tissue culture-treated polystyrene in supporting the attachment, viability, and proliferation of human mesenchymal stem cells and had more intense acute inflammatory infiltrate and thicker layers of maturing fibrous tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
An antibody based approach for multi-coloring osteogenic and chondrogenic proteins in tissue engineered constructs
Anne Marijke Leferink,Diogo Santos Reis,Clemens van Blitterswijk,Clemens van Blitterswijk,Lorenzo Moroni,Lorenzo Moroni +5 more
TL;DR: The conjugation chemistry applied in this proof of concept study is expected to be applicable in the coupling of any other fluorophore or particle to the Abs, which could ultimately lead to a library of probes to permit high-contrast imaging by several imaging modalities.

Photoacoustic Tomography: In Vivo Imaging from Organelles to Organs
Lihong V. Wang,Song Hu +1 more
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correction: Corrigendum: Nature of hardness evolution in nanocrystalline NiTi shape memory alloys during solid-state phase transition
Abbas Amini,Chun Cheng +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the hardness of pseudoelastic NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) during the solid-state phase transition in NiTi SMAs.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of micro CT with other techniques used in the characterization of scaffolds.
TL;DR: Micro CT is a more recent method of examining the characteristics of scaffolds and this review aims to highlight this current approach while comparing it with other techniques.
