Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Bioimaging, which visualizes biomolecules in living cells and tissues, is an indispensable technology in modern life sciences. In particular, magnetic resonance imaging and vibrational spectroscopic imaging, which can measure cells and tissues without staining, are becoming increasingly important in applications such as regenerative medicine. In this study, we have developed magnetic resonance and vibrational spectroscopic imaging using a state-of-the-art laser technology, optical frequency combs. As for the magnetic resonance measurement, we developed a new device and tried to measure it, but unfortunately we could not detect the signal. For the dual-comb vibration spectroscopy measurement, the efficiency was improved by about 100 times compared to the conventional method.
