Congratulations to Lili Shi on her latest publication, “Quantifying Molecular Changes in the Preeclamptic Rat Placenta with Targeted Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Imaging,” in Molecular Imaging and Biology! This study demonstrates how targeted contrast-enhanced ultrasound (T-CEUS) and a bicompartmental model (BCM) provide a quantitative, high-resolution assessment of placental vascular changes in preeclampsia (PE). The findings reveal improved […]

Congrats to Vinoin Devpaul Vincely on their latest publication, “Photoacoustic imaging of rat kidney tissue oxygenation using second near-infrared wavelengths,” in Journal of Biomedical Optics! Their study shows how NIR-II wavelengths (950–1400 nm) enhance spectral photoacoustic imaging (sPAI), reducing errors by 50% and enabling deeper, more accurate tissue oxygenation measurements—advancing the clinical potential of photoacoustic […]
