Nanoscale Photoacoustic Tomography (nPAT) for label-free super-resolution 3D imaging of red blood cells
Samant P., Hernandez A., Conklin S., Xiang L.
We present our results in developing nanoscale photoacoustic tomography (nPAT) for label-free super-resolution imaging in 3D. We have made progress in the development of nPAT, and have acquired our first signal. We have also performed simulations that demonstrate that nPAT is a viable imaging modality for the visualization of malaria infected red blood cells (RBCs). Our results demonstrate that nPAT is both feasible and powerful for the high resolution labelfree imaging of RBCs.
