英文摘要： In an attempt to develop a novel technique for detecting atherosclerotic vulnerable plaque, this study was designed to explore an intravascular photoacoustic dual-modality imging system with both morphologic and functional imaging facilities by combining hgh-resolution tissue component imaging and two-dimensional inflammatory cytokine imaging of a whole plaque. A miniaturized photoacoustic imaging catheter will be designd for intravscular imaging. This novel technology will have a penetration at a milimeter scale and a resolution at a micrometer scale that will realize multi-functional imaging by integrating opitcal and ultrasound imaging, optical and acoustic spectroscopy, generation of laser and ultrasound burst as well as detection of near-infrared fluorescent signals. An optimal algorithm will be developed for quantitative imaging of the tissue component in the fibrous cap and the lipid core in a plaque with high-resolution. The methodology, biochemical safety and imaging accuracy of metallaproteinase enzyme-activable probe, monocyte chemotactic protein 1- and NonO protein-targetted microbubbles, and multi-functional smart probe will be investigated, and these probes and bubbles will be incorporated into the intravascular photoacoustic dual-modality imaging system to enable two-dimensional imaging of plaque component and inflammation activity within the plaque. A rabbit model of atheroslcerotic vulnerable plaque will be used to validate the accuracy of the new imaging technology in detecting vulnerable plaque.
