Studies from Ecole polytechnique federale de Lausanne provide new data on neurophysiology

Published in Medical Imaging Business Week, June 21st, 2007

New research, "Combined voltage and calcium epifluorescence imaging in vitro and in vivo reveals subthreshold and suprathreshold dynamics of mouse barrel cortex," is the subject of a report. "Cortical dynamics can be imaged at high spatiotemporal resolution with voltage-sensitive dyes (VSDs) and calcium-sensitive dyes (CaSDs). We combined these two imaging techniques using epifluorescence optics together with whole cell recordings to measure the spatiotemporal dynamics of activity in the mouse somatosensory barrel cortex in vitro and in the supragranular layers in vivo," scientists in Lausanne, Switzerland report.

"The two optical signals reported distinct aspects of...
