Cell imaging by phonon microscopy: sub-optical wavelength ultrasound for non-invasive imagingTools Perez-Cota, Fernando and Smith, Richard J. and Moradi, Emilia and Leija, Anaid Lugo and Velickovic, Ksenija and Marques, Leonel and Webb, Kevin F. and Symonds, Michael E. and Sottile, Virginie and Elsheikha, Hanny and Clark, Matt (2017) Cell imaging by phonon microscopy: sub-optical wavelength ultrasound for non-invasive imaging. Imaging & Microscopy, 2017 (3). ISSN 1439-4243 Full text not available from this repository.AbstractThe mechanical properties of cells play an important role in cell function and behavior. This paper presents recent developments that have enabled the use of laser-generated phonons (ultrasound) with sub-optical wavelengths to look inside living cells. The phonons reveal contrast from changes in the elasticity of the cell and can provide high resolution three dimensional images.
