Fluorescence imaging: Microscopic fluorescence imaging

History: In 1839, Rudolph Wagner visualized leukocytes rolling inblood vessels within membranous translucent tissues by using brightfieldTransillumination.

Nowadays: Several imaging approaches based on fluorescence microscopy that were established for visualizing cells in vitro have recently been adapted for in vivo imaging: multiphoton microscopy, laser-scanning confocal microscopy, fibre-optic approaches and spectrally encoded endoscopy.

Fluorescence imaging: Macroscopic fluorescence imaging

There are two main types of imaging approach: fluorescence reflectance and tomographic fluorescence.

Non-Fluorescence-based optical imaging: optical coherence tomography

Optical coherence tomography is based on light scattering and can beused to image microscopic structures in vivo (at a resolution of 2–15 μmand to a depth of 1–3 mm)

Non-Fluorescence-based optical imaging: photoacoustic microscopy

Photoacoustic microscopy uses short laser pulses to irradiate tissueand temporarily raise its temperature (by millikelvins). Thermo-elasticexpansion then causes the emission of photoacoustic waves that canbe measured by wide-band ultrasonic transducers, offering improveddepth resolution in the 3–20 mm range

Non-Fluorescence-based optical imaging: tissue spectroscopy

tissue spectroscopy detects relative changes in the way in whichlight interacts with tissue and has been used extensively to improve earlydetection of gastrointestinal malignancies
