A Fibrous Optofluidic Probe for Endovascular Sensing of Blood Oxygenation and Flow Velocity

Local hemodynamic information including blood oxygenation and flow velocity could guide vascular interventions, yet obtaining these parameters in deep, narrow vessels remains challenging. Here, we report a flexible, submillimeter-scale fibrous optofluidic probe for endovascular sensing of blood oxygenation and flow velocity. The probe integrates a polymer optical fiber for light transmission with…
