| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Development of a novel optical tomographic imaging technique with assistance of focused ultrasound to detect indocyanine green (ICG), staining biological structure in living body, was studied. We found that chemiluminescence (CL) reaction system coexisting with ICG was enhanced with low power ultrasonic beam, and succeeded to detect and image ICG in thick biological tissue. We also represented the properties of spatial resolution for imaging and possibility for quantitative detection of ICG.
