Photoacoustic Mode, or ‘PA’ Mode is a new integrated feature built onto the Vevo LAZR platform to enhance high-resolution ultrasound-derived images with the sensitivity of optical imaging. The result is visually stunning anatomical images overlaid with functional hemodynamic and molecular data. Photoacoustics is changing the way cancer biologists, neurologists, developmental biologists and countless other researchers are seeing & obtaining their data.
Technical Specifications:
- Real-time, in vivo imaging of deep tissue (up to 1 cm)
- Integrated, 20Hz tunable laser (680-970 nm)
- Resolution down to 45 µm
- Imaging through endogenous hemoglobin signal
- High optical contrast co-registered with high-resolution imaging
