| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed an ultrafast optical microscope for early, noninvasive, low-cost detection of cancer. This microscope is based on a combination of an ultrafast optical imager known as STEAM and a multi-color fluorescence analyzer for high-throughput screening of cells in a large heterogeneous population. Based on a Ti:Sapphire femtosecond pulse laser, we achieved high spatial resolution of 780 nm and high frame rate of 70 Mfps for high-speed morphological screening. Furthermore, we achieved focusing and ordering of cells in high-speed flow with high precision of a few micrometers. Using the developed system, we demonstrated single-cell analysis of a large population of cells with a high throughput of 10,000 cells/s. This work has been absorbed into the ImPACT program in which a far more advanced system is currently under development.
