Label-free analytic histology of carotid atherosclerosis by mid-infrared optoacoustic microscopy

Background and aims: Analysis of atherosclerotic plaque composition is a vital tool for unraveling the pathological metabolic processes that contribute to plaque growth. Methods: We visualize the constitution of human carotid plaques by mid-infrared optoacoustic microscopy (MiROM), a method for labe...
