Intramural spatial variation of optical tissue properties measured with fluorescence microsphere images of porcine cardiac tissue

Abstract:

This proceeding studies the optical fluorescence images of a porcine heart filled with microspheres of two colors, carmine and red. A significant difference in the total optical tissue attenuation coefficient was observed between excitation and emission for both carmine (excitation - 13±4(1/mm) and emission - 9.4±3(1/mm)) and red (excitation - 29±5(1/mm) and emission - 25±5(1/mm)), indicating that optical tissue properties can change significantly for a small change in light wavelength. The a...
