| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Acoustical-resolution and optical-resolution photoacoustic microscope system were developed. Photoacoustic properties of some metals was measured and macrophage phagocytosing gold nanorod was observed by the system. Photoacoustic imaging of macrophage with gold nanorod has a potential to be a biomarker of inflammation.
