Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy

Phase-Contrast Microscopes
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
Imaging Biological Samples with Optical Microscopy01:18

Imaging Biological Samples with Optical Microscopy

Optical microscopy uses optic principles to provide detailed images of samples. Antonie van Leeuwenhoek designed the first compound optical microscope in the 17th century to visualize blood cells, bacteria, and yeast cells. In 1830, Joseph Jackson Lister created an essentially modern light microscope. The 20th century saw the development of microscopes with enhanced magnification and resolution.
In optical microscopy, the specimen to be viewed is placed on a glass slide and clipped on the stage...

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Otolaryngology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Quantitative imaging of vocal folds is crucial for diagnosing and treating laryngeal disorders.
  • Current Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) techniques struggle with the high frame rates needed for visualizing rapidly vibrating vocal folds.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and demonstrate a novel triggered laser scanning method for capturing 4-dimensional (4D) images of vocal fold vibrations at audio frequencies.
  • To assess the feasibility of this technique for research and clinical applications in laryngeal disorder assessment.

Main Methods:

  • Implemented a triggered laser scanning approach to achieve high-speed 4D imaging.
  • Tested the technique on biopolymer gels undergoing acoustic vibration and on an ex vivo calf larynx model simulating vocal fold phonation.
  • Achieved imaging frame rates capable of capturing vibrations over 100 Hz.

Main Results:

  • Successfully captured 4D images of vibrating samples, including vocal fold models, at frequencies exceeding 100 Hz.
  • Demonstrated the potential of the triggered 4D OCT method for visualizing dynamic tissue motion.
  • Validated the technique in proof-of-concept experiments.

Conclusions:

  • Triggered 4D OCT offers a promising solution for high-speed imaging of vocal fold dynamics.
  • This technique may enhance the understanding of vocal fold function and aid in the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for laryngeal conditions.
  • The method holds potential for both research and clinical settings.
