Abstract

Multi-Spectral Optoacoustic Tomography (MSOT) offers real time imaging that simultaneously exploits high ultrasound resolutions and strong optical contrast. It allows visualizing absorbers in tissue by using their distinct spectral absorption profiles. This work presents a non-invasive in vivo study of kinetics involved in the clearance of carboxylated dye in mouse kidneys. The distinction between probe uptake in different regions of the kidneys is studied, providing insights into its physiologic processes.
