Article Synopsis
  • Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is a key technique in biomedicine that allows researchers to visualize phase changes in cells without using contrast agents, revealing detailed information about cell structure and behavior.
  • The review discusses recent studies utilizing QPI to analyze single-cell growth dynamics, including changes during cell division, organelle differentiation, cell death mechanisms, and even live cell temperature measurements.
  • It also highlights the promising applications of QPI in theragnostics while addressing the challenges that must be addressed for broader use in biomedical research.

Certain types of cardiac arrhythmias are best treated with radiofrequency (RF) ablation, in which an electrode is inserted into the targeted area of the myocardium and then RF electrical current is applied to heat and destroy surrounding tissue. The resulting ablation lesion usually consists of a coagulative necrotic core surrounded by a rim region of mixed viable and non-viable cells. The characterization of the RF ablated lesion is of potential clinical importance.
