Line Scan Spatial Speckle Contrast Imaging and Its Application in Blood Flow Imaging

Laser speckle imaging has been an indispensable tool for visualizing blood flow in biomedical applications. We proposed a novel design of the laser speckle imaging system, which combines confocal illumination and detection with various speckle analysis methods. The system can be operated by three im...
