摘要

Microcirculation is an important component of the cardiovascular system and can be used to assessnsystemic cardiovascular health. Numerous studies have investigated cutaneous microcirculation as an indicator ofncardiovascular related diseases. Such research has shown promising results; however, there are many limitationsnregarding the employed measurement techniques, such as poor depth and spatial resolution and measurementnversatility. Here we show the results of functional cutaneous microvascular experiments measured with photoacousticnmicroscopy, which provides high spatial resolution and multiparameter measurements. In a set ofnexperiments, microvascular networks located in the palms of volunteers were perturbed by periodic ischemicnevents, and the subsequent hemodynamic response to the stimulus was recorded. Results indicate that duringnperiods of arterial occlusion, the relative oxygen saturation of the capillary vessels decreased below resting levels,nand temporarily increased above resting levels immediately following the occlusion. Furthermore, a hyperemicnreaction to the occlusions was measured, and the observation agreed well with similar measurements using morenconventional imaging techniques. Due to its exceptional capability to functionally image vascular networks withnhigh spatial resolution, photoacoustic microscopy could be a beneficial biomedical tool to assess microvascularnfunctioning and applied to patients with diseases that affect cardiovascular health.
