Functional real-time optoacoustic imaging of middle cerebral artery occlusion in mice.
<h4>Background and purpose</h4>Longitudinal functional imaging studies of stroke are key in identifying the disease progression and possible therapeutic interventions. Here we investigate the applicability of real-time functional optoacoustic imaging for monitoring of stroke progression...
