Full-field optical coherence tomography (FFOCT) is an imaging technique of biological tissue based on tissue light reflectance analysis. We evaluated the feasibility of imaging fresh digestive mucosal biopsies after a quick mounting procedure (5 min) using two distinct modalities of FFOCT. In static FFOCT mode, we gained high-resolution images of general gut tissue-specific architecture, such as oesophageal papillae, gastric pits, duodenal villi and colonic crypts. In dynamic FFOCT mode, we imaged individual epithelial cells of the mucosal lining with a cellular or subcellular resolution and identified cellular components of the lamina propria. FFOCT represents a promising dye-free imaging tool for on-site analysis of gut tissue remodelling.
全场光学相干断层扫描(FFOCT)是一种基于组织光反射分析的生物组织成像技术。我们评估了使用两种不同的 FFOCT 模式对经过快速安装程序(5 分钟)后的新鲜消化黏膜活检进行成像的可行性。在静态 FFOCT 模式下,我们获得了食管乳头、胃小凹、十二指肠绒毛和结肠隐窝等一般肠道组织特定结构的高分辨率图像。在动态 FFOCT 模式下,我们以细胞或亚细胞分辨率对黏膜衬里的单个上皮细胞进行成像,并识别固有层的细胞成分。FFOCT 代表了一种有前途的无染料成像工具,可用于现场分析肠道组织重塑。
