Photoacoustic Endomicroscopy Probe with Ultra-Thin Design Integrates Easily with Medical Devices | |
A photoacoustic imaging endoscope probe that was developed by researchers can fit inside a medical needle with an inner diameter of just 0.6 millimetres. Although photoacoustic imaging, which combines light and sound to produce 3D images, can offer crucial clinical information, the instruments have up until now been either too large or too slow for use as forward-viewing endoscopes in actual practise. Wenfeng Xia, Head of the Research Team, King’s College London’s School of Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences, says, “Traditional light-based endoscopes can only resolve tissue anatomical information on the surface and tend to have large footprints. Our new thin endoscope can resolve subcellular-scale tissue structural and molecular information in 3D in real-time and is small enough to be integrated with interventional medical devices that would allow clinicians to characterize tissue during a procedure.” For more details please visit our website - https://www.medhealthreview.com/2025/02/24/photoacoustic-endomicroscopy-probe-with-ultra-thin-design-integrates-easily-with-medical-devices/ ![]() | |
