Rapid volumetric optoacoustic imaging of neural dynamics across the mouse brain

Abstract: Ongoing efforts to scale neuroimaging towards direct visualization of mammalian brain-wide neural activity face major challenges, and a large gap still exists between localized optical microscopy looking at rapid cellular-resolved neuronal activities and whole-brain observations of slow hemodynamics and metabolism provided by macroscopic imaging modalities. Optoacoustic imaging holds inherent advantages for deep tissue observations, but to date has not been applied towards direct activity observation in the ma… Show more

“…Photoacoustic (PA) imaging is a hybrid modality based on the PA effect 21 that has generated much interest due to its ability to image vasculature without the need for exogenous contrast agents, 22 as well as biological processes involving neural dynamics 23 and myelin distribution. 24 In the PA effect, a sample is irradiated with short (typically nanosecond) laser pulses, inducing a thermoelastic expansion of the light-absorbing chromophores, which in turn generate pressure waves that can then be detected using ultrasound (US) transducers.…”

“…In PAI, the target samples or tissues generate US signals after being irradiated by laser pulses. Being a hybrid imaging modality, PAI provides strong optical contrast and high US resolution, 8 making it a promising tool for breast tumor imaging, 2,9,10 angiogenesis monitoring, 11,12 sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping, 13,14 urinary bladder imaging, 15,16 monitoring of hemoglobin concentration, 17 etc.…”

“…The teams used PA to imaging the 3D of whole‐brain neuronal activity of mice. This method has linked the functional microscopy to the whole‐brain monitoring . This tremendously promotes the development of photoacoustic imaging both in basic research and clinical application.…”
