Multiphoton excitation of Rose Bengal to induce capillary photo-thrombosis

摘要

In this work, we demonstrate the application of Rose Bengal as a photo-thrombotic agent using 2-photon and 3-photon excitation by measuring the response to multiphotonic excitation. We also demonstrate, in the case of 2-photon excitation, that the mechanism used is different from laser injury alone with a control group of FitC injected mice. Preliminary results show that a capillary photo-thrombosis could be performed up to 200 μm and OCT imaging could confirm blockage.
