Targeted capillary photothrombosis via multiphoton excitation of Rose Bengal

Microvascular stalling, the process occurring when a capillary temporarily loses perfusion, has gained increasing interest in recent years through its demonstrated presence in various neuropathologies. Studying the impact of such stalls on the surrounding ...

Soliton microcomb based spectral domain optical coherence tomography

Theo Lasser, Paul James Marchand, Tobias Kippenberg, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Junqiu Liu

Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a widely employed, minimally invasive bio-medical imaging technique, which requires a broadband light source, typically implemented by super-luminescent diodes. Recent advances in soliton based photonic ...

Supervised learning to quantify amyloidosis in whole brains of an Alzheimer's disease mouse model acquired with optical projection tomography

Theo Lasser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Aleksandra Radenovic, Paul James Marchand, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann, David Nguyen, Arielle Louise Planchette

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by amyloidosis of brain tissues. This phenomenon is studied with genetically-modified mouse models. We propose a method to quantify amyloidosis in whole 5xFAD mouse brains, a model of AD. We use optical projection ...

Structural and functional brain imaging using extended-focus optical coherence tomography and microscopy

Paul James Marchand

Neuroimaging techniques aim at revealing the anatomy and functional organisation of cerebral structures. Over the past decades, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has revolutionized our understanding of human cerebral physiology through its abili ...

Massively parallel data processing for quantitative total flow imaging with optical coherence microscopy and tomography

Theo Lasser, Paul James Marchand, Daniel Pawel Szlag, Marcin Antoni Sylwestrzak

We present an application of massively parallel processing of quantitative flow measurements data acquired using spectral optical coherence microscopy (SOCM). The need for massive signal processing of these particular datasets has been a major hurdle for m ...

Label-free three-dimensional imaging of Caenorhabditis elegans with visible optical coherence microscopy

Theo Lasser, Paul James Marchand, Séverine Coquoz, Johan Auwerx, Arno Pino Bouwens, Laurent Mouchiroud, Daniel Pawel Szlag, Vincenzo Sorrentino

Fast, label-free, high-resolution, three-dimensional imaging platforms are crucial for high-throughput in vivo time-lapse studies of the anatomy of Caenorhabditis elegans, one of the most commonly used model organisms in biomedical research. Despite the ne ...

Optical projection tomography for rapid whole mouse brain imaging

Theo Lasser, Antonio Lopez, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Paul James Marchand, Jessica Sordet, David Nguyen, Jérôme Extermann, Miguel Sison, Marcin Antoni Sylwestrzak, Julia Sophie Katarina Nilsson, Arielle Louise Planchette

In recent years, three-dimensional mesoscopic imaging has gained significant importance in life sciences for fundamental studies at the whole-organ level. In this manuscript, we present an optical projection tomography (OPT) method designed for imaging of ...

Interferometric synthetic aperture microscopy for extended focus optical coherence microscopy

Theo Lasser, Paul James Marchand, Séverine Coquoz, Arno Pino Bouwens, Jérôme Extermann

Optical coherence microscopy (OCM) is an interferometric technique providing 3D images of biological samples with micrometric resolution and penetration depth of several hundreds of micrometers. OCM differs from optical coherence tomography (OCT) in that i ...

3D Time-lapse Imaging and Quantification of Mitochondrial Dynamics

Theo Lasser, Antonio Lopez, Paul James Marchand, Jérôme Extermann, Miguel Sison, Amir Jean Nahas

We present a 3D time-lapse imaging method for monitoring mitochondrial dynamics in living HeLa cells based on photothermal optical coherence microscopy and using novel surface functionalization of gold nanoparticles. The biocompatible protein-based biopoly ...

Visible spectrum extended-focus optical coherence microscopy for label-free sub-cellular tomography

Theo Lasser, Paul James Marchand, Séverine Coquoz, David Nguyen, Adrien Charles-François Raymond Descloux, Arno Pino Bouwens, Daniel Pawel Szlag, Jérôme Extermann, Miguel Sison

We present a novel extended-focus optical coherence microscope (OCM) attaining 0.7 μm axial and 0.4 μm lateral resolution maintained over a depth of 40 μm, while preserving the advantages of Fourier domain OCM. Our system uses an ultra-broad spectrum from ...

Statistical parametric mapping of stimuli evoked changes in total blood flow velocity in the mouse cortex obtained with extended-focus optical coherence microscopy

Theo Lasser, Paul James Marchand, Tristan Bolmont, David Nguyen, Vincent Khashayar Shamaei, Arno Pino Bouwens, Daniel Pawel Szlag, Jérôme Extermann

Functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) imaging is the current gold-standard in neuroimaging. fMRI exploits local changes in blood oxygenation to map neuronal activity over the entire brain. However, its spatial resolution is currently limited to a few hundre ...

Label-free fast 3D coherent imaging reveals pancreatic islet micro-vascularization and dynamic blood flow

Theo Lasser, Anne Grapin-Botton, Corinne Berclaz, Paul James Marchand, David Nguyen, Arno Pino Bouwens, Daniel Pawel Szlag, Jérôme Extermann, Julia Sophie Katarina Nilsson

In diabetes, pancreatic beta-cells play a key role. These cells are clustered within structures called islets of Langerhans inside the pancreas and produce insulin, which is directly secreted into the blood stream. The dense vascularization of islets of La ...
