    Abstract: A photon-mediated technique for introducing biological materials into cells and/or cellular components. The technique may be used to introduce nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, proteins or other biological materials into mammalian cells (as well as into other animal and plant cells), which materials may then flow into the nuclei of the cells. The technique uses picosecond or femtosecond light pulses propagating in the UV, visible and near infrared wavelength regions with powers on the order of 1×1010 W/cm2. In practice, the desired biological materials are coated on the end of the inner core of a single mode fiber or the ring core of a fiber in a fiber array. Each fiber is sized to correspond to one cell, with the core size ranging from 2&mgr; to 10&mgr;, and the cladding ranging from 10&mgr; to 30&mgr;. The laser pulse travels through a fiber core which is coated with the materials and ablates a portion of a targeted cell or cellular component membrane. In addition, as the laser pulse exits the fiber, it imparts energy and momentum to the materials applied to the end of the fiber. Consequently, after ablation of a portion of the membrane, some of the biological materials are caused to enter therethrough.

    Abstract: Vulnerable plaque (VP) is the main cause of death from heart attacks. All currently available methods developed to diagnose VP lack sensitivity and or specificity and are still unable to identify VP. Our patent addresses the problem to diagnose VP in arteries. The teachings here disclose a vulnerable plaque optical analyzer (VPOA) and Imager (VOPAI) for monitoring arterial walls by measuring whether the fingerprint Raman spectrum of adipose (lipid) tissue using Resonance Raman (RR) and common Raman(R) signals of aortic intimal wall layer. The RR and R lines of lipid determine presentation of VP.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method of use for detecting vulnerable plaque (VP) in arterial walls is provided. The method includes measuring whether the Raman spectrum of adipose (lipid) tissue signal is present in a Raman signal from aortic intimal wall tissue. The Raman vibration modes for VP are strong bands at about 1435 cm−1, about 2850 cm−1, and about 2892 cm−1 and will be present when the aortic intimal wall tissue is thin.
