Ultrasonography

8.3K
Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
During an ultrasonography procedure, a handheld device called...

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation

950
Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is the common plasma source used in atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), a technique that detects and analyzes various elements in a sample. This method is often called inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES).
There are three main types of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy  (ICP-AES) instruments: sequential, simultaneous multichannel, and Fourier transform instruments, with the latter being less commonly used....

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Medical Imaging
    • Acoustic Physics

    Background:

    • Elastography noninvasively assesses biological tissue elasticity for disease detection.
    • Photoacoustic imaging offers functional and structural information.
    • Combining these modalities can enhance diagnostic capabilities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To demonstrate the feasibility of photoacoustic elastography (PAE) for mapping tissue elasticity.
    • To validate PAE using phantoms and in vivo animal models.
    • To compare PAE with conventional ultrasound elastography.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a linear-array photoacoustic computed tomography system.
    • Imaged gelatin phantoms with varying stiffness to assess strain.
    • Performed in vivo PAE on a mouse leg to map fat and muscle distribution.
    • Simultaneously conducted ultrasound elastography for validation.

    Main Results:

    • PAE accurately imaged strains in gelatin phantoms with <5.2% average error.
    • Successfully mapped fat and muscle distribution in a mouse leg based on elasticity contrast.
    • PAE results were confirmed by simultaneous ultrasound elastography.

    Conclusions:

    • Photoacoustic elastography is a feasible technique for noninvasively mapping tissue elasticity.
    • PAE shows potential for differentiating tissues like fat and muscle based on mechanical properties.
    • This technique holds promise for enhanced disease diagnosis through elasticity imaging.
