APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MULTI-MODAL IMAGING USING NANOPARTICLE MULTI-MODAL IMAGING PROBES |
摘要 |
An apparatus for multimodal imaging of an object includes a support stage for receiving an object to be imaged; an object supported on the stage, a light source for producing a beam to illuminate the object; a filter positioned to receive and pass the beam toward the object; and a lens and camera system for capturing an image of the object. The apparatus may include a tiltable filter for filtering light from the source. The apparatus may include a mechanism for selectively directing light from the light source through a first filter assembly to produce a first beam of light of a first frequency range for illuminating an object on the stage in a first imaging mode or through a second filter assembly to produce a second beam of light of a second frequency range for illuminating an object on the stage in a second imaging mode, so that the lens and camera system captures light from the object illuminated by either the first or second beam of light to produce a first image in response to the first beam and a second image, different from the first image, in response to the second image. An x-ray source and phosphor plate may be included to provide an additional imaging mode.
