Diagnostic Imaging of Vascular Malformations Using MSOT and ULM

"MSOT is an advanced imaging technology that combines laser-induced ultrasound and light absorption to visualize biological tissues. By detecting ultrasound waves generated from tissue absorption of multispectral light, MSOT provides high-resolution, real-time images with functional and molecular information. One of its use is in biomedical research and clinical applications to study blood oxygenation and tissue composition, making it valuable for areas such as vascular research.~In this study, we aim to utilize MSOT to differentiate between venous, arteriovenous and lymphatic malformations."

"ULM is a cutting-edge imaging technique that significantly enhances the resolution of traditional ultrasound by tracking the movement of microbubble contrast agents within blood vessels. This approach enables the visualization of microvascular structures and blood flow dynamics at a super-resolution scale, beyond the diffraction limit of conventional ultrasound.~In this study, we aim to utilize ULM to differentiate between venous, arteriovenous and lymphatic malformations."
