Biological imaging

rdf:langString Biological imaging

rdf:langString Biological imaging may refer to any imaging technique used in biology.Typical examples include: * Bioluminescence imaging, a technique for studying laboratory animals using luminescent protein * Calcium imaging, determining the calcium status of a tissue using fluorescent light * Diffuse optical imaging, using near-infrared light to generate images of the body * Diffusion-weighted imaging, a type of MRI that uses water diffusion * Fluorescence lifetime imaging, using the decay rate of a fluorescent sample * Gallium imaging, a nuclear medicine method for the detection of infections and cancers * Imaging agent, a chemical designed to allow clinicians to determine whether a mass is benign or malignant * Imaging studies, which includes many medical imaging techniques * Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a non-invasive method to render images of living tissues * (MAET), is an imaging modality to image the electrical conductivity of biological tissues * Medical imaging, creating images of the human body or parts of it, to diagnose or examine disease * Microscopy, creating images of objects or features too small to be detectable by the naked human eye * Molecular imaging, used to study molecular pathways inside organisms * Non-contact thermography, is the field of thermography that derives diagnostic indications from infrared images of the human body. * Nuclear medicine, uses administered radioactive substances to create images of internal organs and their function. * Optical imaging, using light as an investigational tool for biological research and medical diagnosis * Optoacoustic imaging, using the photothermal effect, for the accuracy of spectroscopy with the depth resolution of ultrasound * Photoacoustic Imaging, a technique to detect vascular disease and cancer using non-ionizing laser pulses * Ultrasound imaging, using very high frequency sound to visualize muscles and internal organs
