Estimation of blood microcirculation in integuments by non-invasive speckle-optical method under the photodynamic...

In studies on animals (rats, rabbits) an experimental technique for estimation of microhemocirculation parameters of tissue under treatment has been developed. This technique has been used to compare the changes of speckle-optical parameters of skin microhemodynamics in laser-irradiated and light-isolated areas in the course of photodynamic therapy. Strong correlation between efficiency of tissue response and injection-photoirradiation time interval has been established. The results obtained are confirmed by the data of microhemodynamics estimation in the course of photodynamic therapy by the method of intravital microscopy. The defined ways of modification of the speckle-optical module will make it possible to optimize the conditions of parameters registration taking into account the object features and to improve informativity and sensitivity of the method.
