Significance: Measurement and imaging of hemoglobin oxygenation are used extensively in
the detection and diagnosis of disease; however, the applied instruments vary widely in their …

The integration of energy harvesting and sensing is core to the enhancement of intelligence
and sustainability of wireless body area networks (WBANs). Much of the harvested energy …

The intimate relationship between neuronal activity and cerebral oxygenation underpins
fundamental brain functions like cognition, sensation, and motor control. Optical imaging …

Piezoelectric ultrasonic transducers have shown great potential in biomedical applications
due to their high acoustic-to-electric conversion efficiency and large power capacity. The …

Sustainable building construction requirements demand an efficient utilization of industrial
waste as alternatives to construction materials. In this work, the nano-silica (NS) has been …

Here, we provide experimental verification supporting the use of short-section imaging
bundles for two-photon microscopy imaging of the mouse brain. The 8 mm long bundle is …

Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a new and rapidly growing hybrid biomedical imaging
modality that combines the virtues of both optical and ultrasonic (US) imaging. The nature of …

Objective: Limited by spherical focused ultrasound transducer (SUT) with a high acoustic
numerical aperture, photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) suffers a rapidly degrading sensitivity …

In this study, we designed a self-focused ultrasonic transducer made of polyvinylidene
fluoride (PVDF). This transducer involves a back-reflector, which is modeled after tapetum …

The objective of this study is to design a therapeutic method combining a portable high
