Assessment of Macular Microvasculature in Healthy Eyes of Infants and Children Using OCT Angiography.
(Ophthalmology, 2019-12)PURPOSE:To assess macular vasculature in healthy infants and children using OCT angiography (OCTA). DESIGN:Prospective cross-sectional study. PARTICIPANTS:One hundred thirty-five normal maculae of 89 healthy infants and ... -
Biomimetic engineered muscle with capacity for vascular integration and functional maturation in vivo.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2014-04-15)Tissue-engineered skeletal muscle can serve as a physiological model of natural muscle and a potential therapeutic vehicle for rapid repair of severe muscle loss and injury. Here, we describe a platform for engineering and ... -
Cardiac Stromal Cell Patch Integrated with Engineered Microvessels Improves Recovery from Myocardial Infarction in Rats and Pigs.
(ACS biomaterials science & engineering, 2020-11)The vascularized cardiac patch strategy is promising for ischemic heart repair after myocardial infarction (MI), but current fabrication processes are quite complicated. Vascularized cardiac patches that can promote concurrent ... -
Dual-energy micro-CT functional imaging of primary lung cancer in mice using gold and iodine nanoparticle contrast agents: a validation study.
(PLoS One, 2014)PURPOSE: To provide additional functional information for tumor characterization, we investigated the use of dual-energy computed tomography for imaging murine lung tumors. Tumor blood volume and vascular permeability were ... -
Intravital microscopy evaluation of angiogenesis and its effects on glucose sensor performance.
(J Biomed Mater Res A, 2010-06-15)An optical window model for the rodent dorsum was used to perform chronic and quantitative intravital microscopy and laser Doppler flowmetry of microvascular networks adjacent to functional and non-functional glucose sensors. ... -
Snap-shot multispectral imaging of vascular dynamics in a mouse window-chamber model.
(Opt Lett, 2015-07-15)Understanding tumor vascular dynamics through parameters such as blood flow and oxygenation can yield insight into tumor biology and therapeutic response. Hyperspectral microscopy enables optical detection of hemoglobin ...
