Line-scanning particle image velocimetry: an optical approach for quantifying a wide range of blood flow speeds in live animals.

The ability to measure blood velocities is critical for studying vascular development, physiology, and pathology. A key challenge is to quantify a wide range of blood velocities in vessels deep within living specimens with concurrent diffraction-limited resolution imaging of vascular cells. Two-phot...
