  • 3D Acoustic Wave Sparsely Activated Localization Microscopy With Phase Change Contrast Agents

    3D Acoustic Wave Sparsely Activated Localization Microscopy With Phase Change Contrast Agents

    Objective  The aim of this study is to demonstrate 3-dimensional (3D) acoustic wave sparsely activated localization microscopy (AWSALM) of microvascular flow in vivo using phase change contrast agents (PCCAs). Materials and Methods  Three-dimensional AWSALM using acoustically activable PCCAs was evaluated on a crossed tube microflow phantom, the kidney of New Zealand White rabbits, and the…
