Definicja i Znaczenie "fluorescence lifetime imaging"

What is "fluorescence lifetime imaging"?

Fluorescence lifetime imaging is a medical and research technique that measures how long fluorescent light stays visible in tissues or cells after being hit by a light source. Instead of just looking at the brightness of the glow, this method tracks how long the light remains before fading. This can provide detailed information about the environment around the glowing molecules, such as changes in cellular health or tissue conditions. By analyzing how long the light lasts, scientists and doctors can learn more about various biological processes, identify abnormalities, and monitor how cells react to treatments.
