SHARED STORY
Photoacoustic Imaging of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Labeled with Prussian Blue–Poly(l-lysine) Nanocomplexes
Submitted by: Dr. Taeho Kim, University of California, San Diego, USA

MRI has relatively poor temporal resolution of minutes, while micro-CT imaging has good temporal resolution, it also has limited sensitivity and poor soft tissue contrast. Photoacoustic imaging can overcome these limitations as a powerful tool with excellent spatial (50-150 μm) and temporal resolution (100 ms).

VEVO TIPS & TRICKS
Kelly Shares this Tip: Optimizing Color Doppler 



This issue's tip has been shared by Dr. Kelly O'Connell, Applications Scientist. This content is available to registered users only. There are many parameters that can be used to optimize the Color Doppler signature in your image. Increasing or decreasing Doppler gain will not necessarily help visualize different velocities of flow. Doppler gain should be used in conjunction with velocity, to help optimize the color signal displayed.
