Spectral characteristics of voltage-sensitive indocyanine green fluorescence in the heart

Abstract Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescent dye has been approved by the FDA for use in medical diagnostics. Recently, we demonstrated that ICG dye has voltage-sensitive properties with a dual-component (fast and slow) response in the Langendorff-perfused rabbit heart. Here, we extended our studies...
